8/12 PVC
8x12mm PVC Dosing Tube
8x12mm PVC dosing tube is suitable only for vacuum applications such as the suction side of a dosing pump and can be supplied, cut to size, from any length up to 100 metres.
8x12mm PVC Dosing Tube
PVC (PolyVinyl Chloride) dosing tube is available with an internal diameter of 8mm and an external diameter of 12mm, for use with chemical dosing pumps in our AT4 range.
The 8x12mm PVC dosing tube is fully transparent and is designed to be permanently suspended into a chemical container, or chemical dosing tank, to provide the suction point for a chemical dosing pump or a peristaltic pump. We strongly recommend checking the compatibility of your chemical reagent with the PVC dosing tube, using our chemical compatibility checker.
8x12mm PVC Dosing Tube Properties
| Internal Diameter | Outside Diameter | Tolerances | Weight | Burst Pressure | Temp. Range | Bend Diameter |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8mm | 12mm | ±0.2 mm | 75 g/m | N/A | -15°C to + 60°C | 130mm |
Technical information for use as a guide only. Pressure values given are based on the short term burst pressure at 20°C. Any increase in temperature above 20°C will result in a decline in working pressure values. We strongly recommend you check our chemical compatibility database and speak to your chemical supplier, to ensure that all materials are compatible with the chemical to be dosed.
8x12mm PVC Dosing Tube Features & Benefits
8x12mm PVC dosing tube is fully transparent, and combines good chemical resistance with a soft material, making it ideal for suction tubing on dosing pumps and is available with lengths up to 100 metres, or cut to size.
Flexible, low cost and with a working temperature suitable for most applications, makes the 8x12mm PVC dosing tube, ideal for most suction applications, when combined with chemical dosing applications, subject to chemical compatibility. Suitable for use in food & beverage applications, the 8x12mm PVC dosing tube doesn't impart taste or odour into contents.

Applications
8 x 12mm PVC is suitable for vaccum applications only and is mainly confined to being used for the suction side of dosing pumps. The 8x12mm PVC is suitable for use on the suction and bleed valves of the following models of pumps:-
8x12mm PVC is manufactured using the finest quality materials and is very flexible, durable, and a light weight hose suitable for use with chemical reagents and food stuffs. We strongly recommend that you check that LDPE is compatible with your chemical reagent using our chemical compatibility database or with your chemical supplier and that all chemical dosing tube is protected from frost, direct sunlight and is installed inside a secondary pipe or hose to provide mechanical protection and containment.
The 8x12mm PVC is highly transparent allowing visual inspection of the suction tubing to be carried out easily and is designed to provide a long operational life service life.
