MDX S-CON tubing surface properties resist sticking and encrustation, and will not support bacteria growth. The tubing is soft, pliable, and contains no plasticizers which could leach out, causing flow contamination or tube hardening.

Radiopaque tubing can be supplied with the Barium Sulfate opaquing agent, either fully dispersed throughout the tubing, co-extruded as striping on the outer surface of the tubing, or fully encapsulated within the wall.

Peroxide-cured MDX S-CON tubing is supplied in non-sterile, individual, heat-sealed polybags and should be sterilized prior to use.

If tubing is exposed to repeated steam sterilization or long-term high temperature or pressure, silicone will eventually relax, become gummy, and should be replaced.

Note: MDX S-CON is not recommended for implant or in-body uses. Care is recommend­ed in the selection and application of Fittings and clamps. Sharp, barbed fittings or unlined metal clamps could tear into the tubing wall.

The Excelon Tube Snip Cutter easily makes clean, smooth cuts and works well with Silbrade Medical silicone hose. Also available, Excelon Tube Snip Cutter Replacement Blades (Parts No: RF38000)
