Platinum-cured silicone

Platinum-cured (rather than peroxide-cured) silicone is the cleaner of the two cures: no peroxide by-products to leach, lower extractables, and noticeably better clarity. It is the sensible default where the fluid path matters — reagent transfer, sampling, and anything destined for analysis.

  • Excellent durability and aging resistance under repeated compression.
  • High anti-break strength and good transparency, so you can see the fluid front and spot air locks.
  • Physically and biologically inert.
  • Rated to 2 bar water pressure.
  • Consistent 0.92 mm wall across every bore, so roller compression stays predictable.

Check your chemistry first

Weak resistance to acids and solvents. The manufacturer is explicit about this: silicone is the wrong choice for concentrated acids, most organic solvents, and many hydrocarbons. It swells, softens and fails early.

Silicone is excellent for aqueous solutions, buffers, culture media and most water-treatment dosing. It is not a universal tubing. If you are pumping anything aggressive, tell us what it is before you order — for those duties a fluoropolymer or PharMed-type tubing is the honest answer, and we would rather point you at one than sell you a coil that dies in a week.

Rule of thumb on wear: in a peristaltic pump the tubing is the only wetted part, so it is also the consumable. If your dispensed volume has drifted more than a couple of percent and recalibrating no longer holds, change the tubing before you suspect the pump.

Sizes & dimensions

Sizes are quoted as bore × wall in millimetres. Outside diameter is bore + (2 × wall). Note that the finest bore, 0.5 mm, is priced the same as the widest — drawing a very small bore to tolerance is the harder job.

Which heads it fits

This tubing is made for DG and DT series micro-flow pump heads. The manufacturer specifically lists the 0.5 × 0.92 size against DG6, DG10, DW10 and FZ10 heads.

Straps are not optional

Tubing is held into DG, DT10, DW and FZ series heads with straps — the tubing alone will not seat correctly without them. That's why every option here is either sold with straps or offered alongside a pack of them:

  • 6 ft cut lengths arrive with 2 straps already fitted.
  • 20 m coils come either bare, or bundled with a pack of 10 straps for $5.00 more.
The 6 ft lengths are strap-spaced for DG heads. The manufacturer notes that to use them on a DT or DW head you must adjust the distance between the two straps to suit. If you're on a DT or DW head and would rather not fiddle, order a coil plus a strap pack and set the spacing yourself from the start.

Check before you order. Head naming across the DG / DT / DW / FZ families is close enough that it's easy to order one size out. Email us your head model number — and your target flow rate and fluid if you have them — and we'll confirm the bore before you buy. That check is free and takes us a few minutes.

Confirm my tubing size

Ordering & packing

  • 20 m coil (65.6 ft) — the standard pack, from $30.00 USD. Best value per metre if you change tubing regularly.
  • 20 m coil + 10 straps — the same coil with a strap pack, $5.00 USD more. The sensible first order if you don't already have straps.
  • 6 ft cut length — from $6.25 USD, with 2 straps fitted. Good for a single DG head or a spare in the drawer.
  • Free USA shipping, dispatched within 1–2 business days.
  • Genuine manufacturer tubing to the published specification — not a look-alike.

Consumables are not returnable once opened — see our returns policy. This is exactly why we'd rather confirm your size and your fluid by email first than have you buy a coil you can't use.

Bulk & standing orders

If you get through tubing predictably, we can quote multiple coils at a better rate or set up a repeat shipment on your schedule. Tell us your usage and we'll price it.
