- Philadelphia, PA-NJ (1888PressRelease) October 31, 2018 - A new product is available from AdvantaPure: AdvantaSil Ultra Low Temperature Silicone Tubing. This platinum-cured tubing is designed for Single-Use, cold temperature applications in biopharm and pharmaceutical processing such as bulk drug storage and transport.
AdvantaSil Ultra Low Temperature Silicone Tubing offers a solution to the challenge of safeguarding today’s high-value drug products. AdvantaSil Ultra Low Temperature tubing is the first commercially-available silicone tubing engineered to withstand flexing and manipulation within a 86°C ( 122.8°F) freezer. Flex and crush testing conducted on gamma-irradiated tubing showed no cracking or loss of integrity. A video on the company’s website shows the testing processes and results. The tubing has also undergone drop and storage testing.

AdvantaSil Ultra Low Temp was designed specifically for these types of applications.”
