Versilon SPT-70 FB IB is a platinum-cured silicone tubing designed specifically for food and beverage dispensing applications. Safe to be in contact with food, all layers of Versilon SPT-70 FB IB tubing are compliant with FDA, EU and GB food contact regulations*.
This reinforced tubing imparts essentially no taste or odors to the transferred fluids. Its smooth inner surface reduces the risk of particle entrapment and inhibits protein binding and bacterial growth; cleaning and sterilization cycles become more effective as a result. Versilon SPT-70 FB IB tubing can easily withstand repeated SIP and CIP cleaning and sterilization cycles, making it ideal for repeat-use applications. Its flexibility, durability, and chemical and temperature resistance provide a unique combination of characteristics required in many food and beverage applications.
Low Extractables
Versilon SPT-70 FB IB silicone tubing is manufactured with a platinum curing process designed to meet the most demanding requirements of food and beverage sanitary standards. Third-party extractability tests have shown that Versilon SPT-70 FB IB tubing has a low extractable content which helps maintain the integrity of the transported food and beverage media.*
