Nowadays, PVC pipes are a popular application in various industries, and nylon tubing is another highly respected pipeline material. As a strong, durable, and highly flexible pipe material, nylon tubes have demonstrated irreplaceable advantages in many industrial fields include Automotive,Pneumatic Systems,Chemical and Water Supply system.
Nylon tubing is plastic pipes made by extruding nylon polymers. Its structure is generally simple, composed of pure nylon. For special requirements, a steel wire braid or nylon fiber layer can be added.
Nylon tubing is lightweight yet has high tensile strength, chemical resistance, wear resistance, and good flexibility. These properties make nylon tubing highly suitable for industries such as the automotive industry, pneumatic systems, and water supply & drainage.
Characteristics of Nylon Tubing
Nylon tubing exhibits higher mechanical strength and tensile strength compare to Polyurethane Tubing. Nylon tube is wear-resistant, have good toughness, and demonstrate significant stability in terms of tensile and bending properties.
Easy to install, no need for any special tools. The excellent overall performance of nylon tube is unmatched by copper, steel, or rubber hoses, making it an ideal substitute for copper, steel, and rubber pipes.
As nylon heat resistant tubing, when in low or high temperature, it can maintain its chemical and physical properties.For example, PA12 Nylon Tube has excellent low-temperature resistance and can be used in the temperature range of -40 ℃ to 120 ℃,Nylon tubings are lightweight, moisture-resistant, resistant to saltwater and seawater, and exhibit good aging resistance. They are also resistant to corrosion, alkalis, and salt solutions, while showing good resistance to weak acids, engine oil, gasoline, aromatic hydrocarbons, and general solvents.
This inertness effectively shields against corrosion from gasoline, oil, fats, weak alkalis, and more. This makes nylon tubes widely used in compressed air systems, lubrication systems, flammable oil fluid pipelines, hydraulic pipelines, certain chemical fluid applications, and food-related fluid systems.
However, nylon tubing is not resistant to strong acids, strong alkalis, phenols, and other oxidizing liquids.
Types of Nylon Tubing
Fokca provides several types of nylon pipes, focusing on wear resistance and flexibility.

Parameters of Nylon Tubing
Before using nylon tubing correctly, you need to have a certain understanding of its related parameters.
| Raw material | Polyamide |
| Applicable medium | Air, Water, Vacuum, Oil |
| Working pressure | 0~2.0MPa |
| Max.applicable pressure | 2.5MPa |
| Min. Burst pressure | 6.0MPa |
| Embient and fluid temperature | -40℃~+120℃ |
We can conclude that nylon tubing is suitable for a variety of media, with high pressure resistance and a wide temperature range, making it very suitable for harsh industrial environments. Translate into English.
Nylon tubing and PVC tubes are both commonly used hose materials in industrial applications. They differ in terms of performance, suitable applications, cost, and service life.
| Attribute | Nylon (PA) | PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) |
|---|---|---|
| Material Type | Polyamide (Nylon) | Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) |
| Temperature Resistance | Good high-temperature resistance, suitable for environments ranging from -40°C to +120°C | Generally narrower temperature range, typically suitable for environments from -15°C to +60°C |
| Chemical Resistance | Good resistance to oils, chemicals, and solvents | Good corrosion resistance to acids, alkalis, salts, etc. |
| Flexibility | High flexibility, suitable for applications requiring bending or movement | Relatively rigid, not suitable for environments with frequent bending or movement |
| Abrasion Resistance | Excellent abrasion resistance, suitable for high-frequency friction environments | Lower abrasion resistance, not durable in high-friction environments |
| Impact Resistance | Good impact resistance, suitable for high-pressure environments | Poor impact resistance, prone to breakage, suitable for low-pressure environments |
| UV Resistance | Sensitive to UV light, prone to fading or degradation with long-term exposure | Good UV tolerance, suitable for outdoor use |
By comparing the above parameters, I believe you have gained a deeper understanding of nylon pipes.
