GENERAL PURPOSE TUBES

The general purpose tubes and hoses are used for the general purposes which do not require high range of purity of the compound. These are mostly used in many domestic appliances and in the workshops or hobby applications because of their excellent flexibility.

MEDICAL/FOOD GRADE TUBES

These are specially designed hoses and tubes which are made in a manner so that they do not react with any medical or food material. They are sterilized in standard autoclaves in order to make them fit for the application in which they come in close contact with the food ingredients, body tissues and fluids or sensitive drugs. In this particular type of tubing the manufactured silicone tubes and hoses are completely tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic with a special property which does not support bacterial growth.

The high pressure tubes and hoses are made by strengthening their composition with wire or polyester braids which combats expansion and flattening. These tubes are mostly used when then the tubes are in direct contact with pressurized gases or suction is conducted. However, sharp edged clamps and fitting should be avoided near the tubes as they have low tensile strength and resistance to steam which may cause excessive wear and tear.

USES OF SILICONE TUBES IN THE INDUSTRIAL SECTOR

Silicone has a multiple usage in the industrial sector because of its excellent properties and types which provide a very wide area for functioning. Some of these uses are:

Rubber PTFE Diaphragm

The diaphragms Rubber / PTFE we offer are manufactured using qualitative raw material procured from trustworthy vendors. These are widely used in various industries and have gained huge accreditation in the industry for their host of exclusive features. The entire range can also be customized as per the specification detailed by the clients.

Rubber Diaphragms

CLASSIFICATION OF RUBBER DIAPHRAGMS
The diaphragms may be classified into two distinct types:

A diaphragm is a flexible barrier that spans the gap between a moving and stationary units/members. The primary function of the diaphragm is to prevent fluid interchange between two separated chambers. Rubber diaphragm can be manufactured from a variety of rubber sheets.
CLASSIFICATION OF RUBBER DIAPHRAGMS
The diaphragms may be classified into two distinct types:

• STATIC DIAPHRAGMS
These diaphragms are used to separate two fluids and are subjected to little or no motion during their application. Also, they suffer very little pressure change during the process.

• DYNAMIC DIAPHRAGM
Dynamic diaphragms act as sealing devices between a stationary and moving component of a system. Hence, they have to usually transmit force and pressure to maintain the balance.
• TYPES OF RUBBER DIAPHRAGM
There are four types of rubber diaphragms which are primarily available in the market:

CLASSIC RUBBER DIAPHRAGMS
These rubber diaphragms are made of rubber, rubber-fabric combinations and specialty materials.

INDUSTRIAL RUBBER DIAPHRAGMS

These rubber diaphragms are resistant to many chemicals at different pressure ranges. These are movable between two components through a dividing membrane. The main functions of industrial rubber diaphragm include:
• They are used to control the pressure in industrial settings.
• They are used to make valves.
• They are used for manufacture of pumps.
• They are used for accumulator functions.

MOLDED DIAPHRAGMS
These diaphragms are made specifically based on the requirements given by the customers.
The molded diaphragms are manufactured to be resistant to a huge range of pressure that is exerted on them during their application.

PROPERTIES OF ELASTOMER/RUBBER DIAPHRAGMS
The rubber diaphragms have many distinct properties enabling their usage but some of the most useful ones are:
• The rubber diaphragms can perform various functions over a broad range of operating temperature and conditions ranging from the metering of fuels to the regulation of gas for heating systems.
• They have maximum thickness to provide maximum sensitivity.
• They are built so as to avoid any sort of leakage which can be fatal in all its usage and hence, anti-wrinkle fabrics are used.
• They have an extended life even when operating under high temperature range or close to flame.
• The elastomer/ rubber diaphragms are considered to be dimensionally stable in all its vital applications.

USES OF RUBBER DIAPHRAGMS
Some of the most popular uses of rubber diaphragms are:
• CNG/LPG vaporizers and reducers
• Gas meters
• LPG regulators
• Fuel pumps
• Pumps and valves
• Automotive diaphragm
• Fabric diaphragm
• Actuator valves
• Other purpose diaphragms

SELECTION OF RIGHT MATERIAL FOR THE RUBBER DIAPHRAGM
There are a wide range of elastomers available for the job but the right type should be chosen based on the job profile which consists of the following considerations:
• Desired sensitivity
• Working pressure
• Distance from the flame or other conditions where is has to function.
• Rate of diaphragm travel
• Temperature
• Smoothness of the flange areas
• Flange pressure
• Working environment

The diaphragms rubbers we manufacture are available in various sizes ranging from 5 mm to 1000 mm. Our range of diaphragms is manufactured using PTFE / ELASTOMERIC materials that have the capacity to withstand harsh weather conditions. We make use of almost all types of material that comprises of Nitrile, EPDM, Neoprene, Fluorosilicone, Silicone, SBR, Fluoroelastomers Viton.,PTFE.
