SMC Corporation TU1610B-20 Polyurethane Tubing

SMC TU1610B-20 Polyurethane Tubing is a black polyurethane pneumatic tube designed for general‑purpose air and water lines in automation. It has a 10 mm inside diameter and a 16 mm outside diameter, delivered on a 20 m reel for convenient, mid‑length runs. The tubing’s Shore A hardness is about 95, providing a balanced mix of stiffness and resistance to wear, while its maximum operating pressure is 0.8 MPa at 20°C (approximately 116 psi). A minimum bend radius of 45 mm helps prevent kinking in tight installations. As part of the TU1610 series, the TU1610B-20 is offered in multiple colors, with the “B” suffix indicating black, and is compatible with standard pneumatic fittings used in SMC systems. Typical applications include general pneumatic circuits, instrument air lines, and feeds to actuators, where polyurethane tubing is preferred for reliable flexibility and abrasion resistance in daily industrial use.
