Tygon® SPT-3370 IB
Tubing for Food and Beverage Transfer Under Pressure
Designed to Maintain Fluid Purity Under Pressure
Braid reinforced for increased pressure resistance, Tygon® SPT-3370 IB silicone tubing is frequently specified in the most demanding applications requiring sanitary transfer of fluids. Its smooth inner surface reduces the risk of particle entrapment and inhibits excessive residue and microscopic bacterial buildup; cleaning and sterilization cycles may become more effective as a result. Additionally, an improvement in fluid flow characteristics may occur from the reduced surface area and lowered absorption of fluids to the wall.
Tygon® SPT-3370 IB tubing can easily withstand repeated SIP and CIP cleaning and sterilization cycles, making it ideal for repeat-use applications. Its flexibility, durability, and chemical and temperature resistance provide a unique combination of characteristics required in many food and beverage applications.

Lower Extractable
Tygon® SPT-3370 IB silicone tubing is produced from a platinum curing process to meet the most demanding requirements of food and beverage sanitary standards. In-house extractability tests have shown that Tygon® SPT-3370 IB tubing has a low extractable content. Lower extractable help to maintain the integrity of the transported food and beverage media.
Regulatory Compliance
Tygon® SPT-3370 IB tubing meets 3-A Sanitary Standard No. 18-01, FDA 21 CFR 175.300 and NSF 51 certification. Tygon® SPT-3370 IB silicone tubing has a Master File with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
