NYLON TUBE - NYLON TUBING
KRB Nylon tube is manufactured from virgin granules of: nylone-6 , nylon -66, nylone-11, nylon -12, also known as polyamide or PA6, PA66, PA11 & PA12.
NYLON TUBE : PROPERTIES & FEATURES
-High impact strength, high resistant to abrasion and good functioning over wide range of temperature.
-tubes are semi flexible to super flexible and so a best substitute to copper and other metallic pipes like steel etcâ¦.
-Available in different grades â PA6, PA66, PA11, AND PA12 tubing and in various colures
-Can be used for medium to high pressure to convey gas ,oil, air, and other and other fluids.
-Significant chemical .mechanical, thermal & electrical properties.
NYLON TUBE : ADVANTAGES
-very cost effective
-Bendable and re- bendable easily
-flexible in nature (copper/ alumininium tubes are rigid basically)
-available in various colours such white black ,blue, yellow, red green etcâ¦â¦..
NYLON TUBE- USEFUL GUIDE LINES :
White installation, take proper care not to give excessive bend and twist or tension to tube or otherwise, the tube may get kinking and leads to damage or even breakage.
Do not forget to observe the rule of minimum bend radius rule for each size of nylon tube as different sizes have different bend radii.
Careful laying of tube will also give protection against abrasion. Possible effect of shrinkage will be compensated by allowing sufficient length of tube.
End fitting should be used as per best practice in the industry. While making end fitting connection , make it sure the tube ends are cut at right angles and the cross section of tube does not look elliptical. If this is not followed properly , leakage may occur at the fitting. Manlon tube fitting specially developed for nylon tubing are the best alternative.
Do not use tubes having damages such crack, kink, collapsed and uneven outside surface as all these reduce the quality and performance of tubes.
While using nylon tube of pressure purpose, always consider the temperature involved in the application as it can affect pressure rating of nylon tubes. ( Nylon tubing 1. Html)
If the fluid flow rate is high in the tube, it may cause to develop static energy which may lead to fire and so in such cases our antistatic nylon tubing is recommended.
Notes:
You can buy nylon tubes in various colours like blue, yellow, orange, black, green, transperant etc.
Nylon tubes are also are known as PA tubes, PA pipes, pneumatic pipes, plastic tubes, plastic pipes, engineering pipes, PVC pipes spring pipes plastic hose, plastic coil, high pressure pipes, pressure tubes air pipe ,air tubes ,brake pipes, air break tubes, non-metallic tubes , etcâ¦â¦
