What are the Benefits of Nylon Tube?

Regarded highly for its exceptional stability, mechanical strengths and resistance to chemical corrosion, nylon is considered one of the most versatile engineering materials. We can print any text or logo on our flexible nylon tube. Below we will explore some of the main benefits of this type of tubing in more detail.

Nylon 12 Polymer

We make our nylon tubing from Nylon 12, a polymer. The fact that it is a polymer is important as Nylon 12 offers great characteristics such as good resistance to abrasion, heat and cold, to name a few.

Pneumatics industry

Nylon tube is widely used in the pneumatics industry for piping pneumatic circuits. The close tolerance of the tube makes it ideal for use with push-in type and compression-type fittings. The nylon tube is also used for air brake systems on vehicles.

Brewery and beverage applications

Nylon tube is widely used in the Brewery Dispense Industry for CO2 gas lines only.

Available in a range of colours

All our Nylon tubing comes in a wide range of colours for easy identification, and we can custom print your messaging on all these. These colours include: natural, black, red, blue, green, yellow, orange, brown, grey and pink.

Suitable for use with a wide range of fittings

Our nylon tubing is compatible with a wide range of fittings, making it easy to apply and secure for your bespoke application usage.

High temperature resistance

Our nylon tubing can maintain integrity with occasional use of up to 120°C and 140°C. We manufacture this tubing suitable for many hi-heat applications.

Low temperature resistance

To complement its high-temperature resistance, Nylon tubing can also be used in environments of -40°C – again making it suitable for many applications.

High pressure resistance

Our nylon tuning has excellent pressure resistance; however, we can manufacture this in flexible and semi-rigid materials depending on your bespoke needs. Please refer to our WP/BP charts (specification tab).

High resistance to abrasion

This tubing has high abrasion resistance, making it ideal for applications that need to carry liquids or gasses. This ability will help to prevent accidental damage to the tubing that will cause leakages or spillages.
