Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fittings not rated for Schedule 160 or nylon material.Utilize fittings specifically engineered for nylon piping and the high pressures associated with Schedule 160, ensuring material compatibility.
Exceeding the maximum recommended operating pressure or temperature for nylon.Consult the material data sheet for nylon's operating limits and ensure the application stays within these parameters to prevent premature failure.

Common Applications

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

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for use with strong oxidizing agents or certain aggressive solvents.
  • Maximum operating pressure and temperature must be strictly adhered to for safety and performance.
