Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fittings not rated for Schedule 160 pressure ratings.Always specify and use fittings that are explicitly rated for the pressure and dimensional requirements of Schedule 160 pipe.
Over-tightening connections, which can deform the nylon pipe wall.Follow manufacturer torque specifications for fittings to avoid over-stressing the pipe material.

Common Applications

  • High-pressure hydraulic systems
  • Pneumatic conveyance lines
  • Chemical processing fluid transport

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Verify chemical compatibility of nylon with the specific fluid being conveyed.
  • Operating temperature limits of nylon must be observed to prevent material degradation.
