LAVMHAB Silicone Tubing, 9mm ID × 12mm OD, 6m

LAVMHAB silicone tubing is listed as a clear, flexible 6-metre hose with a 9mm internal diameter and 12mm outside diameter. It may suit liquid or air transfer where those dimensions fit, but the listing gives conflicting pressure specifications and cautions against continuous steam use.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Pressure details are contradictory: the specifications list 0.5bar-2.5bar (at room temperature) as working pressure and 4.5 Bars as maximum pressure. The listing also says pressure resistance decreases with larger inner diameter at the same wall thickness. Temperature claims give -50°C to 200°C, while the listing warns that prolonged high temperature or pressure can make the tube relax and become gummy and says not to use it for continuous steam. Verify suitability for the intended pressure, temperature and food-contact requirements before use. The dimensions field also reads only 12W millimetres, inconsistent with the stated 9mm × 12mm tube size.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

Buyers needing a clear silicone tube with a stated 9mm internal diameter, 12mm outside diameter and 6-metre length.
Low-pressure air or liquid transfer where the tubing dimensions and operating limits suit the system.
Installations where the tube needs trimming to a chosen length.

Less suited to

Continuous steam applications, which the listing explicitly rules out.
Applications requiring a verified pressure rating or documented food-contact certification, as these are not established by the supplied listing details.

Aggregate ratings lean positive, with most ratings in the five-star category, but a smaller one-star share shows that experiences are not uniformly positive. With no customer-comment summary available, the ratings do not establish specific strengths or causes of dissatisfaction. For buyers, fit and use limits are more actionable: check the stated 9mm ID and 12mm OD against fittings and resolve the listing's conflicting pressure details before relying on it.

Frequently asked questions

What are the listed tube dimensions?

The feature details give a 9mm internal diameter and 12mm outside diameter, with a 1.5mm wall and 6-metre length. A separate dimensions field only says 12W millimetres, so confirm the selected listing if precise fit is essential.

What pressure can it handle?

The listing gives a working pressure of 0.5bar-2.5bar (at room temperature) and separately lists a maximum pressure of 4.5 Bars. These are conflicting claims, so do not treat the higher figure as a confirmed working rating.

Can it be used for food or drink?

The listing calls the silicone food-contact grade and non-toxic, but supplies no certification details. Confirm that its documentation meets your intended application.

Can it be used with steam?

No. The listing says it should not be used in continuous steam applications. It also warns that prolonged high temperature or pressure can make the tubing relax and become gummy.
