Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard, non-reinforced fittings not rated for Schedule 160 pressure.Always use high-pressure, compatible fittings specifically designed for the rated pressure and material of Schedule 160 Nylon pipe.
Exceeding the maximum operating pressure or temperature limits for Nylon.Consult the material datasheet and application requirements to confirm operating parameters do not exceed the safe limits for this specific Nylon grade.

Common Applications

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

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not expose to temperatures exceeding the maximum service temperature of Nylon.
  • Ensure compatibility with all conveyed fluids, as some aggressive solvents may degrade Nylon.
