Sani-Tech® STHT®-LT Low-Temperature Silicone Tubing

TECHNICAL SELECTION

Sani-Tech® STHT®-LT Low-Temperature Silicone Tubing overview

Platinum-cured silicone tubing developed for very-low-temperature bioprocessing that remains flexible and pressure-resistant at -80°C for refrigerated storage, cold-chain logistics, freeze-thaw, and low-temperature fill-finish flow paths.

Maintains flexibility and pressure resistance at -80°C, reducing the risk of brittle failure in low-temperature tubing runs

A glass-transition temperature of approximately -114°C and an impact-embrittlement temperature below -90°C support demanding cold-chain service

Evaluate Sani-Tech® STHT®-LT Low-Temperature Silicone Tubing against the actual process fluid, operating conditions, connections and sterilization method. Published limits are model- and size-dependent; confirm the current technical documents before specifying a component or complete fluid path.

Specification and selection

1. Confirm fluid compatibility, extractables, adsorption and particle requirements.
2. For pump use, specify the pump head, tubing size, speed, back pressure and run time.
3. Review material and hardness: Platinum-cured silicone, Shore A 65.
4. Review low-temperature performance: Maintains flexibility and pressure resistance at -80°C.
5. Review glass-transition temperature: Approximately -114°C.
6. Provide the required quantity, delivery format and technical documentation for a quotation.
