Notes
NYLOTUBE® is resistant to solvents,
alkalies, oils, greases, petroleum products, fungus, and
molds. It has generally good resistance to dilute mineral
and organic acids, but in-plant tests are suggested.
Semi-Rigid grade, black color, is heat
and light stabilized.
Nylon brittleness is usually caused by
cycles of water absorption and depletion. NYLOTUBE® is
not dependent on moisture for flexibility, so life
expectancy is greatly increased with brittleness
eliminated.
Corrugated nylon tubing is available.
Custom sizes and colors, including
clear, are available through minimum order. Repetitive
cutting, bonding, coiling, heat-formed shapes, and custom
fabrication are also available. Samples of stock material
are available upon request.
