Silicone Hose 16mm ID × 21mm OD - High-Temp Food-Grade Brewing Tubing per Meter
This food-grade silicone hose is a premium, high-temperature brewing tubing solution built for homebrewers who need reliable, flexible line that can handle the full thermal demands of the brew day — from hot wort transfers straight off the boil through to cold-side racking and general brewery plumbing. With a 16mm inner diameter and 21mm outer diameter, this hose is sized for high-volume flow applications where standard small-bore tubing would create unnecessary restriction or back pressure.
What makes silicone the material of choice for serious homebrewers over standard PVC is its exceptional temperature tolerance, long-term flavour neutrality, and resistance to permanent deformation. Unlike PVC, which softens and distorts under sustained heat and can develop a plastic taint over time, silicone maintains its shape, flexibility, and taste-neutral properties across hundreds of brew cycles. It cleans easily, sanitises reliably, and handles boiling wort, caustic cleaning solutions, and acid sanitisers without degradation — making it a genuine long-term investment over cheaper tubing alternatives.
At 16mm ID, this hose is ideally matched to high-flow brewing applications — pump outlet lines, kettle-to-fermenter transfers, chiller connections, and anywhere in the brewery where volume and flow rate matter.
