What Is Vinyl Tubing?

 

 

Vinyl (PVC) tubing is very popular because it is flexible, versatile, and economical. It offers outstanding clarity and is used in a wide range of applications and settings, from general laboratory use to food, beverage, medical device, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Like most other plastic tubing items, vinyl tubing is typically made through extrusion. Thermoforming raw plastic materials is known as plastic extrusion (heat formed). The raw plastic material is collected in a hopper positioned above a conveyance channel to begin the plastic extrusion process.
The plastic tubing emerges from the other side of the die, which is then allowed to cool and harden. The newly produced tubing is trimmed to length and ready for shipping or further processing at this point. Depending on the application, additional processing, such as coloring, may be required in vinyl tubing. Many tubes are also labeled so spectators can quickly determine what's within.

The Difference Between Vinyl Tubing and Rubber Hose
 
 
1. Differences in materials

Vinyl Tubing is mainly made of polyethylene material, which has good wear resistance and impact resistance, and has excellent performance in wear resistance. Rubber hoses are mainly made of rubber materials, usually synthetic rubber or natural rubber, which have good elasticity and sealing properties.

 
2. Differences in wear resistance

Vinyl Tubing have good wear resistance and can withstand the impact and friction of high transport media. They are suitable for some industrial fields with high wear resistance requirements. Rubber hoses have poor wear resistance and are easily scratched or perforated. They are suitable for some industrial fields that do not require high wear resistance.

 
3. Differences in corrosion resistance

The Vinyl Tubing has strong corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of some corrosive media. It is suitable for some chemical fields or corrosive media transportation. Rubber hoses have poor corrosion resistance, are weak in resisting some corrosive media, and are easily corroded.

 
4. Differences in temperature range

The temperature range of Vinyl Tubing is relatively narrow, and it is usually suitable for industrial fields with temperatures between -40°C and 60°C. Exceeding this range will affect its performance and life. The temperature range of rubber hoses is relatively wide and can be used in industrial fields with temperatures between -40°C and 120°C.

 
5. Differences in sealing performance

Rubber hose has good sealing performance and can effectively prevent leakage and air leakage between pipes and interfaces. The sealing performance of polymer polyethylene wear-resistant pipes is poor, and joints are needed to ensure their sealing performance.

Vinyl Tubing Key Considerations for Purchase and use
 

Material and Construction

Vinyl tubing is typically made from PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material, which offers excellent clarity, flexibility, and resistance to a wide range of chemicals. However, it's essential to check the specific grade and quality of PVC used in the tubing to ensure it meets your requirements.

 

Size and Dimensions

Vinyl tubing comes in a variety of sizes and dimensions, including inner diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), and wall thickness. It's crucial to select the right size for your application to ensure proper flow rates and compatibility with fittings and connectors.

 

Pressure and Temperature Ratings

Vinyl tubing is rated for specific pressure and temperature ranges, depending on the application. It's essential to choose tubing with ratings that match or exceed the conditions it will be subjected to in use to prevent leaks, bursts, or other issues.

 

Compliance and Certification

When purchasing vinyl tubing for certain applications, such as food and beverage dispensing or medical use, ensure that the tubing meets relevant regulatory standards and certifications, such as FDA (Food and Drug Administration) compliance for food contact.

 

Application-Specific Considerations

Consider any specific requirements or challenges of your application, such as exposure to UV light, abrasion resistance, or flexibility needs. Choose tubing that is designed to meet these challenges for optimal performance and longevity.

 

Maintenance and Care

Vinyl tubing requires regular maintenance and care to ensure longevity and performance. Follow manufacturer recommendations for cleaning, storage, and handling to avoid damage and prolong the life of the tubing.

 

How To Straighten Vinyl Tubing

 

Vinyl tubing is a popular material used in plumbing and other industrial applications. It is flexible and easy to use, but sometimes it can become bent or twisted and need to be straightened. Straightening vinyl tubing is a relatively simple process if you have the right tools and materials.

 

To begin, you will want to lay your vinyl tubing on the flat surface. Then, you will need to apply heat to the tubing. You can use a heat gun or a propane torch, depending on the size and shape of the tubing. Heat the tubing until it is warm to the touch, but not hot enough to burn you.

 

Next, you will need to use the flat object to straighten the tubing. Place the flat object on the tubing, and then use your hands to gently push and pull the tubing back into its original shape. Take your time and make sure the tubing is straight before moving on to the next section.

 

Once you have straightened the tubing, you will need to let it cool. Once it has cooled to room temperature, you can inspect it to make sure it is straight. If it is not, you can reheat it and repeat the process until it is straight.

 

Finally, you can use the tubing as you normally would. It is important to note that the process of straightening the tubing can weaken it, so be sure to inspect it regularly for any signs of wear or damage.

 

Will Vinyl Pipes Get Clogged During Drip Irrigation?
product-600-520
 

Inserting lengths of 1/4- or 1/8-inch vinyl tubing as feeder line into 1/2-inch poly pipe is no more complicated than inserting a drip emitter. Just cut appropriate lengths of vinyl tubing with pruning shears or a knife, then punch a hole in the poly header pipe with a hole punch. Insert a barbed connector into the hole, then insert the other end of the barbed connector into the length of vinyl tubing. Where two sections of vinyl tubing must be attached at the same spot, use a barbed tee connector. If the vinyl tubing is too stiff, soak it in warm water before use. Do not use glue, oil, or lubricants to assemble the parts.

Each section of vinyl tubing can be connected to a single drip emitter or a series of in-line drip emitters. The ordinary drip emitter is simply inserted at the end of the section of tubing. The emitter should be held off the ground with a stake to keep it from clogging. In-line emitters are inserted by cutting the tubing at the appropriate spot, inserting the emitter, and pushing the tubing back into place around it.

product-600-481
 

Any section of tubing that does not end in a drip emitter should be plugged with a tube end clamp, which is used in much the same fashion as a figure-8 end clamp. Like all pipe, vinyl tubing must be flushed before installing end caps or terminal emitters.
