Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening connections, leading to cracking or deformation of the nylon pipe.Use a torque wrench to adhere to recommended torque specifications for fittings. Avoid excessive force.
Using incompatible fittings or sealants not rated for nylon and the specific operating pressure/fluid.Always verify compatibility of all connecting components and sealing materials with the nylon pipe and the conveyed medium.

Common Applications

  • High-pressure hydraulic systems
  • Chemical transfer lines
  • Industrial fluid conveyance

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Maximum operating pressure and temperature limits must be strictly adhered to.
  • Avoid exposure to UV radiation or extreme temperatures outside of specified operating ranges, as this may degrade nylon properties.
