Very low moisture absorption: 1.4% maximum (at 73ºF)
Will not become brittle or swell because of water
Nylon-11, semi-rigid grade, natural color made with FDA-approved ingredients for use with food contact surfaces
Excellent resistance to flexural fatigue, tube vibration, and movement
Lightweight with excellent bend radii and pressure ratings
Resists crushing, abrasion, and cracking
Standard availability in metric sizes and colors
Tightest tolerances available
Notes
NYLOTUBE is resistant to solvents, alkalies, oils, greases, petroleum products, fungi, 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.
