Processes
Series 12 is a platinum-cured silicone mixture, processable by extrusion and moulding, which stands out for its good mechanical properties. It offers a very wide hardness range (from 10 to 90 Shore A) and food contact possibility. A key feature is that suction tubes manufactured with formula EQ1260T are validated to integrate medical devices requiring CE marking.
