Siftex Seamless Rubber Tubing

Choose a rubber sleeve around the product and operating conditions.

Siftex Seamless Rubber Tubing
Siftex: Seamless Rubber Tubing. Manufacturer equipment example.

Seamless Rubber Tubing for your process

Choose a rubber sleeve around the product and operating conditions.

Siftex offers seamless tubing in a range of rubber compounds. Natural rubber, neoprene, nitrile, EPDM, silicone and other materials have different properties, so the compound needs to be selected before comparing dimensions or price.

Example: Replace a flexible sleeve where the existing compound is affected by wear or cleaning chemistry.

Also known as: Seamless rubber sleeves, rubber connector tubing, elastomer sleeves.

Match the compound

oil, chemical, temperature and abrasion exposure influence selection.

Fit the installed connection

diameter, wall and length affect movement and attachment.

Review documentation

contact or regulatory statements apply to the selected material.

How It Works

1

Define the service conditions

2

Select the compound and dimensions

3

Install and monitor the sleeve condition

Welded Flexible Connectors

Use a welded sleeve

Welded Flexible Connectors >>

Join process equipment with a tailored flexible connection.

Example: Connect an equipment outlet to a moving machine while reviewing dust containment.

Also known as: Welded sleeves, flexible process connectors, custom transitions.

Sewn Flexible Connectors

Use a sewn fabric

Sewn Flexible Connectors >>

Use selected fabric construction for a moving process connection.

Example: Connect a sifter discharge with a custom fabric sleeve suited to the movement.

Also known as: Siftsox, sewn sleeves, fabric connectors, sifter socks.

Clear-Flex SDX Connectors

See the product flow

Clear-Flex SDX Connectors >>

Keep the material path visible through a selected flexible connector.

Example: Observe a dry-material transfer through a clear flexible connection.

Also known as: Clear polyurethane connectors, transparent sleeves, Clear-Flex SDX.

Screen-Cleaning Balls

Help clear the mesh

Screen-Cleaning Balls >>

Help keep screen openings clear from below the mesh.

Example: Review screen blinding where an existing ball-tray deck needs suitable replacement balls.

Also known as: Sifter balls, mesh-cleaning balls, deblinding balls, Better Balls.

Under-Conveyor Catch Cloths

Contain conveyor spills

Under-Conveyor Catch Cloths >>

Contain crumbs and loose material beneath a conveyor.

Example: Collect bakery crumbs under a conveyor instead of allowing them to fall across the area below.

Also known as: Bakery crumb catchers, catch cloths, under-conveyor containment.
