FAQ: Which Tubing Is Best for CIP/Washdown Environments?
PU tubing - Ether base. Its superior hydrolysis resistance prevents material degradation during frequent moisture exposure.
FAQ: Best Tubing for Airtight Pneumatic Seals?
Selection depends on the application requirements:
- PU tubing - Ether base: Moisture-rich environments and frequent washdown cycles.
- Nylon 12 tubing (PA12): High-speed automation with temperature and pressure sensitivity.
- LDPE tubing: Chemical and fluid transfer applications.
Essential: Always use SHPI precision tube cutters to eliminate tube slanting, a prerequisite for achieving airtight sealing performance with One-Touch fittings.
FAQ: How Does SHPI Impact Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?
- Maintenance: Reduced replacement frequency through high-durability materials.
- Energy: Minimized compressed air leakage through precise mechanical sealing.
- Uptime: Strict adherence to industry standards helps prevent unplanned downtime.
