Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The Soft Nylon Tube is a flexible, high-resistance piping solution designed for use in industrial applications where movement, pressure, and fluid resistance are key concerns. It excels in transporting lubricating oil, cutting oil, air, water, and heat medium oil, making it ideal for environments with dynamic mechanical components or fluctuating temperature conditions.
Constructed from soft nylon material, the tube offers exceptional flexibility and durability. Its composition provides excellent resistance to pressure and oil, ensuring long-term performance under demanding fluid exposure. The material is inherently resistant to abrasion and chemical degradation, maintaining integrity when exposed to lubricants and cutting fluids.
The tube features a standard configuration with cut marks printed at 500 mm intervals along its length, providing clear visual guidance for accurate cutting during installation. It is available in six standard sizes and can be custom-cut to specific lengths upon request, though additional cutting charges apply for non-standard lengths.
The Soft Nylon Tube operates reliably under a maximum operating pressure of 1.3 MPa (at 65% RH and 20°C) and supports a maximum vacuum of -100 kPa. It is suitable for use with air, water, and thermal oil, with an operating temperature range from -20°C to 100°C for air and from -15°C to 90°C for water and thermal oil—ensuring performance in both cold and hot environments without freezing.
Available in a full range of 12 colors, the tube supports color coding for easy identification and system differentiation. This makes it ideal for complex piping systems where traceability and maintenance are critical. The six standard sizes ensure compatibility with a wide variety of industrial setups while allowing customization through make-to-order length options.
The tube can be integrated directly into systems requiring flexible, high-resistance piping, particularly in applications such as mold cooling water lines or moving part lubrication. Its soft and flexible nature allows it to conform to dynamic mechanical movements without kinking or restricting flow.
