Can Universal, soft, flexible, and stretchable hose made of light brown natural rubber VERSILONâ¢ GA be sterilized by steam (141Â°C, 1 bar, 30 min) or ethylene oxide without losing properties?

Yes. Universal, soft, flexible, and stretchable hose made of light brown natural rubber VERSILONâ¢ GA can be sterilized by steam (141Â°C, 1 bar, 30 min) or ethylene oxide without losing properties. The product description explicitly states sterilization with steam for 30 minutes (1 bar, 141Â°C) or ethylene oxide. Its construction from natural rubber (NR) with an operating temperature range to +70Â°C (and resistance to moist heat up to 120Â°C), high elasticity (max elongation 500%), and proven use in laboratories and food/chemical dispensing supports compatibility with these sterilization methods. As packaged in a Clean Zone (CLEAN ROOM), it is intended for sterile environments; however, avoid repeated extreme cycles beyond specified conditions and follow manufacturer handling instructions.

Is Universal, soft, flexible, and stretchable hose made of light brown natural rubber VERSILONâ¢ GA suitable for handling alcoholic and dairy products in lab settings?

Yes. Universal, soft, flexible, and stretchable hose made of light brown natural rubber VERSILONâ¢ GA is suitable for handling alcoholic and dairy products in lab settings. It is lightweight, soft (40Â° Shore A), highly elastic (up to 500% elongation), abrasion-resistant, and shows good resistance to acids and bases. It is explicitly indicated for alcoholic and dairy products and laboratory use, can be sterilized by steam (30 min, 1 bar, 141Â°C) or ethylene oxide, and is packaged in a Clean Room. Observe operating temperature limits (â35Â°C to +70Â°C; 120Â°C for moist heat) and the working pressure defined by a 1:5 safety factor relative to burst pressure.

Does Universal, soft, flexible, and stretchable hose made of light brown natural rubber VERSILONâ¢ GA resist acids and bases during prolonged industrial use?

Universal, soft, flexible, and stretchable hose made of light brown natural rubber VERSILONâ¢ GA offers good resistance to acids and bases, as stated in the product description. It is abrasion-resistant and specifically noted to have good resistance to acidic and alkaline substances, making it suitable for prolonged industrial use with various liquids and gases (e.g., soaps, detergents, alcoholic and dairy products, laboratory applications). However, since the hose is made of natural rubber (NR), its chemical resistance has practical limits: highly concentrated, strong oxidizing acids or aggressive bases, certain organic solvents and prolonged exposure to specific chemicals may degrade natural rubber over time. For critical or continuous contact with aggressive chemicals, compatibility testing or consultation with the manufacturer is recommended to confirm suitability for your specific acids/bases, concentrations, temperatures and exposure durations.
