Medical Grade Silicone Tubing
Medical Grade Silicone Rubber Tube Manufacturer
Medical grade silicone rubber tubing is widely used in medical devices, laboratory systems, pharmaceutical equipment and biotech applications where material purity, stability and consistency are critical.
At Suconvey, we manufacture medical silicone tubing using high-purity silicone compounds and controlled extrusion processes to deliver tubing that performs reliably in sterile, analytical and healthcare environments.
Our focus is not just on compliance, but on real-world performance during repeated use, cleaning and sterilization.
Medical Grade Silicone Tubing
Medical grade silicone tubing is different from general industrial or food grade tubing.
It is designed for applications where tubing may be exposed to:
- sensitive biological or chemical fluids
- frequent sterilization or disinfection
- repeated bending, pumping or compression
- strict cleanliness and consistency requirements
Silicone as a material is naturally inert and stable, but medical-grade performance depends heavily on formulation control, processing accuracy and quality management.
That is why medical tubing is typically chosen for systems where long-term reliability matters more than initial cost.

Expanded Applications
Medical Devices and Patient-Care Equipment
Medical silicone tubing is often found in equipment that handles fluids used in patient care, including:
- fluid transfer lines in medical devices
- suction and drainage tubing
- respiratory and oxygen delivery systems
- neonatal and pediatric care equipment
In these applications, tubing must remain flexible, kink-resistant and stable over extended periods of use.
Laboratory and Diagnostic Systems
In laboratory environments, tubing is used to transport reagents, samples and cleaning solutions through analytical instruments.
Typical uses include:
- diagnostic analyzers
- sample preparation systems
- chromatography and spectroscopy equipment
Here, dimensional consistency and smooth internal surfaces help ensure stable flow rates and reliable analytical results.
Pharmaceutical and Biotech Processing
Medical grade silicone tubing is also used in:
- buffer and media transfer
- small-batch pharmaceutical processing
- aseptic filling and dosing systems
These applications require tubing that tolerates repeated sterilization while maintaining physical integrity and cleanliness.
Peristaltic Pump Applications
Silicone tubing is a preferred choice for peristaltic pumps due to its flexibility and resilience.
Key benefits in pump systems include:
- consistent compression behavior
- long fatigue life under cyclic loading
- predictable flow characteristics
For higher pressure or extended duty cycles, reinforced silicone tubing may be specified.

Customization & Services
Medical applications rarely use “one-size-fits-all” tubing.
Suconvey supports custom tubing configurations to match specific system requirements:
- Inner and outer diameter matching to connectors and fittings
- Wall thickness optimization for flow rate, flexibility or pressure resistance
- Hardness selection to balance elasticity and mechanical strength
- Reinforced constructions (braided or layered) for pressure or vacuum stability
- Cut-to-length supply for direct assembly
We regularly work from drawings, samples or functional descriptions, helping customers fine-tune tubing performance before full production.
Packaging & Shipping Information
To protect the product during global transportation and storage, we apply export-grade packaging and provide flexible shipping solutions.
Pre-Shipment Inspection
Each batch is inspected before packaging to confirm hardness, thickness, surface condition, and visual uniformity. Batch codes are recorded and compliance documentation may be provided when required for regulatory purposes.
Packaging Method
Silicone tubes are wrapped with protective film to prevent dust, moisture, and surface damage. Several rolls are placed into reinforced cartons, which are then secured on fumigation-free pallets using straps and stretch film.
Shipment Options
We regularly ship to customers in Europe, North America, and Asia through sea freight, air freight, or express courier for urgent testing needs. Both FCL and LCL shipments are available.
Documentation Support
All necessary export documents can be provided for customs clearance, including commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin, and food-contact compliance statements or test reports when applicable.
Sample Delivery
Material samples and short test tubes can be supplied for validation and equipment trials. Samples can be sent via DHL, FedEx, UPS, TNT, or using your appointed courier account.
After-Arrival Support
If any damage or discrepancies are discovered during unloading or inspection, customers may contact us within 7 days with photos and batch information. Our team will respond promptly to assess the situation and provide a reasonable solution.
