Nowadays, PVC pipes are a popular application in various industries, and nylon pipes are another highly respected pipeline material. As a strong, durable, and highly flexible pipe material, nylon pipes have demonstrated irreplaceable advantages in many industrial fields.
Nylon tube is a plastic tube made by extruding nylon polymer. Due to the unique properties of nylon, such as high tensile strength and chemical resistance, nylon tube has become a popular material in many other application fields. Over time, nylon pipes have been continuously developed and improved to meet the changing demands of various industries in society.
Parameters of Nylon Tubing
The reason why nylon pipes have excellent characteristics that other types of pipes cannot match is due to their unique structure and design. Let's learn about it together
| 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℃ |
Based on the above parameters, I believe you have gained an understanding of the relevant parameters of nylon tubes, which are crucial for determining the appropriate application scenarios for using nylon tubes.
If you have no concept of the above parameters, you can refer to the comparison with PVC parameters：
| 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 |
| Weight | Lightweight, easy to handle and install | Lightweight, suitable for large-scale installations, cost-effective choice |
| Pressure Capacity | High pressure capacity, suitable for high-pressure applications | Suitable for medium to low-pressure applications |
| Installation Method | Can be connected using various fittings such as crimping or clamp rings | Commonly connected using welding or gluing methods, easy to install |
| Service Life | Long service life in high-pressure and wear environments | Shorter service life, prone to damage especially in high-friction, high-temperature environments |
| Main Applications | Automation, pneumatic systems, robotics, chemical transportation, etc. | Water pipes, drainage pipes, irrigation, construction, and sewage treatment, etc. |
By comparing the above parameters, I believe you have gained a deeper understanding of nylon pipes.
Characteristics of Nylon Tubing
Compared to PU tubes, Nylon tubing exhibits higher mechanical strength and tensile strength. Nylon tubes are wear-resistant, have good toughness, and demonstrate significant stability in terms of tensile and bending properties.
They are easy to install without the need for any special tools. The excellent overall performance of nylon tubings is unmatched by copper pipes, steel pipes, or rubber hoses, making them an ideal alternative to copper, steel, and rubber materials.
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.
Commonly conveyed fluids include 40-degree baking soda, 40-degree carbonated water, -20 to 40-degree alcohols, distilled water, seawater, oils, and more.
However, nylon tubings are not resistant to strong acids, strong alkalis, phenols, and other oxidizing liquids.
