The most outstanding property of S-CON is its resistance to temperature extremes. This, plus its good electrical properties and ability to self-extinguish, makes S-CON an excellent choice for appliances and computers. S-CON has a U.L. rating of UL94HB.
Peroxide-cured S-CON contains no sulfur or other acid-producing chemicals, which eliminates the possibility of staining, corroding, or deteriorating materials it contacts.
S-CON may be low-pressure steam sterilized inline or autoclaved at up to 250°F in a normal autoclaving cycle. However, if exposed to repeated steam sterilization or long-term high temperature or pressure, silicone will eventually relax, become gummy, and should be replaced.
NOTE: Care is recommended in the selection and application of fittings and clamps for S-CON. Sharp, barbed fittings or unlined metal clamps could tear into the tubing wall and cause possible failure.
