Silicon hoses are a type of hose typically used in fluid transfer applications and are designed to withstand higher temperature and pressure.
They can handle a variety of fluids from food to automotive, and are highly durable, flexible, and resistant to corrosion. They are lightweight and soft and are less expensive than metal alternatives.
Silicon hoses are an exciting addition to the industrial landscape in Nigeria as the country grows its economy, striving for better quality and greater durability.
The excellent chemical resistance of the hoses allows for a variety of applications, including automotive, food and beverage, medical, and industrial processing applications.
In the automotive industry, the hoses can be used for turbocharger, fuel, coolant, and oil hoses. In medical applications like ultrasound equipment and oxygen tanks, they help to support the hoses and keep them secure.
The silicone hose is the preferred choice for quick connect and quick disconnect applications due to its compliance and flexibility.
It is also capable of carrying various oils and chemicals at extreme temperatures without suffering from physical or thermal degradation over time.
This makes them ideal for use in harsh environmental conditions as well as in chemical plants and other industrial plants.
Due to their non-toxic and non-reactive finish, they are gaining ground as the preferred choice of plumbing hoses in Nigeria. They can be used in a variety of applications from potable water to hazardous material transfer.
One of the major advantages of silicone hoses is that they are easier to assemble as they can be shaped to fit any shape or size of pipe. As a result, they are becoming more popular in residential and commercial buildings.
The NIgeria Silicon hoses market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
AdvantaSilTM Ultra Low-Temperature Silicone Tubing, Designed to Opera at as Low as -112°C, is Presented by AdvantaPure®. South Coast AdvantaPure is now launching AdvantaSil Ultra Low-Temperature Silicone Tubing, a new product. For single-use, cold-temperature applications in biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical processing, such as bulk drug storage and transportation, this platinum-cured tubing is made.
AdvantaSil Ultra Low-Temperature Silicone Tubing provides an answer to the problem of protecting today’s expensive pharmaceutical products. The first silicone tubing on the market designed to withstand bending and manipulation in a freezer at 86°C (‑122.8°F) is AdvantaSil Ultra Low-Temperature tubing.
As seen in the video, flex and crush tests on gamma-irradiated tubing revealed no fractures or loss of integrity. Testing for drops and storage has also been done on the tubing.
There are five sizes of AdvantaSil Ultra Low Temperature Silicone Tubing available, ranging from 1/8′′ to 1/2′′ I.D. Bag assemblies, container closures, and single-use assemblies with molded tees, wyes, crosses, and reducer connectors are available by special order. There are also options for gamma-irradiated assemblies and tubing.
For use in thermal management applications, Parker Hannifin, a leader in motion and control technologies globally, has unveiled a new line of silicone hoses. The SAE J20 R3 Class A specification is met by the 6722 X-Treme series of extruded silicone hoses, which can be installed on trucks, buses, engines, and other applications that call for a high-efficiency cooling/heating circuit in addition to serving as thermal management solutions.
The term “thermal management” refers to the various heat-transfer mechanisms—conduction, convection, condensation, and radiation—that are used to raise, hold, or lower a system’s or component’s temperature.
Parker’s low permeation silicone hose resists ozone and UV damage better than alternative materials and can be used with a variety of coolant fluids. In addition to being resistant to oxidation and chemicals, the 6722 series maintains its stability at extremely high temperatures, like those found in engine compartments, where temperatures can reach +177°C. Over time, Parker’s 6722 X-Treme series retains its elasticity and flexibility.
This raises the likelihood of successful installations in confined, tight spaces and around obstacles and lowers the risk of cracking, hardening, or dry rotting. Furthermore, the new hose performs well at damping sound and vibration.
All of these advantages help to prolong the service life of circuits and equipment while lowering maintenance, downtime, warranty, and logistical costs. For the increasing number of industrial applications where other rubber hose solutions are unable to handle temperatures sufficiently, Parker’s silicone hoses offer essential features.
