The Multi-colored Ribbon Tube is a multi-core, highly flexible polyurethane tubing solution designed to organize and manage piping for moving parts and actuators. Its soft, resilient construction allows multiple lines to be neatly arranged, reducing clutter and minimizing the risk of misconnection during operation or maintenance.
Constructed from highly flexible polyurethane, the tube offers excellent bendability while maintaining structural integrity. Each tube features a multi-core design with customizable core configurations. A black 2-core variant includes an identification line to help distinguish individual lines and prevent piping mistakes.
The tubing is available in a range of configurations, including different numbers of cores and color combinations. Custom arrangements can be specified as make-to-order items, allowing precise matching to specific application needs. The tube's internal structure supports both double-acting actuators and similar systems requiring organized multi-line connections.
The ribbon tube is rated for operation with air or water under conditional use (as noted in technical data). It can withstand a maximum operating pressure of 1.0MPa at 65% relative humidity and 20°C, and supports a maximum vacuum of -100kPa. The operating temperature range is -20 to 60°C for air and -15 to 60°C for water—both under non-freezing conditions.
Available in six sizes and combinations of ten colors, the product offers extensive customization options. Specific configurations—including core count, color sequence, and tube diameter—are available as make-to-order items to match exact application requirements. Cut marks are printed at 500 mm intervals along the tube for guidance during cutting; however, these marks are not guaranteed in accuracy.
The tubing is compatible with integration systems such as Plarailchain, which helps prevent tangling of stored tubes or cables. While no specific installation hardware is provided, the design supports direct connection to moving parts and actuators where organized cabling is required.
