SILICONE TUBE REFERENCE: ST DESCRIPTION: Silicone Tube MATERIAL: High temperature Silicone 315ºC See the material data sheet DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCE The dimensional tolerance of the Silicone Tube is according the RMA A3 APLICATIONS: Powder Coating, Wet Coating, E-Coating, Plating, Anodizing. USES: Silicone tubes are used for many different things. They are always used to cover profiles, bolts and tubes to protect them from the surface treatments as well as to protect against hits during the transport. The Tube is served in rolls of 30m. Or 15m. depending on the size and must be cut according to the length required for each case and once installed, is used for masking-off for surface treatments as well as to protect against blows as parts are transported. The difference between the ST- and the MST- tubes is the wall thickness. The ST- tubes have a Thicker wall that the MST- tubes, for this reason the ST- are more rigid and it is mainly used masking proposes where it is necessary it fits tightly to the part. RECOMMENDATIONS of USE: Chose the appropriate size taking into consideration the inside Tube Diameter “ID”. For a painting process use, the tube has to be fitted in a stud, then the inside tube diameter “ID” should be around 0.1mm to 0.3 mm smaller than the stud´s diameter to ensure it fits tight enough. The tube can be cut down at the length you need in each situation. For a protecting use, it is not necessary that the Tube fits so tight and it is just necessary to choose a dimension “ID” a little bigger than the bar or tube to be protected. The tube can be cut down at the length you need in each situation. It is recommended to use a special tube cutter
