Orange Food Grade Silicone Tube — Flexible Hose Pipe for Liquid Transfer

Whether you're setting up a homebrewing system, running a dairy milk line, or routing fluids through lab equipment, finding a hose that won't leach odors, crack under heat, or stiffen in the cold is a constant challenge. This orange food grade silicone tube is built for exactly those situations — giving DIYers, brewers, and small-scale food processors a reliable, flexible hose that holds up where rigid plastic and rubber tubing fall short.

Each order is a continuous length of food grade silicone tubing available in three inner diameter × outer diameter combinations — 4×6mm (5/32" × 15/64"), 5×7mm (13/64" × 9/32"), and 6×8mm (15/64" × 5/16") — with wall thickness of 1mm throughout. Lengths range from 1M (≈3.3 ft) to 50M (≈164 ft), sold as a single cut piece. The tubing has a Shore A hardness of approximately 60°, giving it a firm-yet-pliable feel that seats securely on barb fittings without slipping.

Typical use cases include homebrewing beer and wine transfer lines, peristaltic pump tubing for food processing, aquarium and hydroponics water routing, laboratory fluid handling, and flexible silicone hose connections in HVAC or automotive cooling systems where a food-safe flexible hose pipe is needed.

ℹ️ Compatibility Note: This tubing fits standard metric barb fittings matching the inner diameter — 4mm barbs for the 4×6mm size, 5mm barbs for 5×7mm, and 6mm barbs for 6×8mm. Not designed for high-pressure hydraulic lines. Confirm fitting OD before ordering.

✅ Key Features of These Food Grade Silicone Flexible Hose Pipes

🍺Certified Food Grade Material — Made from odorless, tasteless, non-toxic silicone that meets food contact standards, making it safe for beer brewing transfer lines, milk hoses, and winemaking siphon tubing.
🌡️Wide Temperature Range — Rated from –60°C to +180°C (–76°F to +356°F), this flexible silicone hose handles steam cleaning, hot liquid transfer, and freezing cold environments without cracking or hardening.
🔄Flexible & Kink-Resistant — The 60 Shore A silicone compound bends easily around corners and equipment without collapsing the bore, maintaining consistent flow even in tight routing paths.
📏Multiple Sizes & Cut-to-Length Options — Choose from three ID×OD combinations (4×6mm, 5×7mm, 6×8mm) and eleven lengths from 1M to 50M, so you get exactly what your project requires without waste.
☀️UV & Ozone Resistant — Unlike standard rubber hose pipe, silicone resists UV degradation and ozone attack, making this tubing a dependable choice for outdoor installations and long-term setups.
🔧Easy Push-Fit Installation — The slightly elastic wall stretches over barb fittings and seats firmly without adhesive or special tools, simplifying installation for DIY plumbing, aquarium lines, and lab setups.

⚠️ Sizing Tip: Inner diameter (ID) is the critical measurement for fitting compatibility. Always match the tube ID to your barb or fitting OD. If you're unsure, contact us before ordering.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right size silicone tube?

Measure the outer diameter of the fitting or barb you need to connect. The inner diameter (ID) of the tube should match or be very slightly smaller than the barb for a snug, leak-free fit. For example, a 4mm (5/32") ID tube fits a 4mm barb fitting. When in doubt, size down — silicone stretches slightly to accommodate a secure seal.

What pressure can this silicone hose handle?

Food grade silicone tubing of this wall thickness (1mm) is generally rated for low-to-medium pressure applications — typically up to 30–60 PSI depending on diameter and temperature. It is not intended for high-pressure hydraulic use. Contact us to confirm suitability for your specific application.

Is this silicone tube safe for beer brewing and food contact?

Yes. This tubing is made from food grade silicone that is odorless, tasteless, and non-toxic. It is commonly used in homebrewing, dairy lines, winemaking, and food processing equipment where FDA-compliant materials are required. It will not impart flavors or odors to your liquids.

Can I use this hose outdoors or in high-temperature environments?

Yes. Silicone is inherently UV-resistant and performs reliably across a wide temperature range of –60°C to +180°C (–76°F to +356°F), making it suitable for outdoor use, steam cleaning lines, and applications near heat sources. Unlike standard rubber hose pipe, it will not crack or harden with prolonged sun exposure.

What fittings or connectors are compatible with this tubing?

This silicone tube is compatible with standard metric barb fittings, hose clamps, and push-fit connectors sized to match the inner diameter. For the 4×6mm size, use 4mm barb fittings; for 5×7mm, use 5mm barbs; for 6×8mm, use 6mm barbs. Hose clamps are recommended for pressurized connections to ensure a secure seal.

How do I decide how much length to order?

Measure the total run of your installation, then add 10–15% extra for routing around obstacles and making clean cuts. Available lengths range from 1M (≈3.3 ft) to 50M (≈164 ft). Ordering a longer roll is generally more economical per meter than multiple short lengths — check the per-meter price across variants before deciding.

Can this silicone tube be used with peristaltic pumps?

Yes. Silicone tubing is one of the most common materials used in peristaltic pumps due to its flexibility, resilience, and chemical compatibility. It is widely used in lab dispensing, beverage dosing, and aquarium dosing pumps. Confirm the pump head accepts the outer diameter of the tube you select.
