Choose PA12 nylon tubing if you require it:
- Automotive systems: fuel line PA12 fuel line hose, cooling, air intake, cable protection, brake system. The flexibility of PA12 makes it suitable for complex bends and integration with decorative body parts.
- Electronics and cable solutions: flexible plastic nylon tubing is used in protective sleeves, sensors, electric motors and connectors.
- Industrial packaging: air packaging systems, vacuum packaging machines, transport systems, cooling – all this requires high-strength polyamide PA12 hoses.
Benefits of PA12:
1.Budget choice
2. Ideal for static pneumatic systems
3.High temperature resistance: -40℃ to +100℃
4.PA12 tube sizes PA12 nylon tube size: available on request
5.PA12 tube pressure PA12 tube pressure rating: up to 20 bar
6.Temperature range Temperature resistance range of PA12 tubing

Choose PA11 nylon tubing if you require
1.Automotive: especially for aggressive chemical environments Chemically resistant PA11 hose. Suitable for fuels, oils, cooling systems and protection of electrical cables. An excellent choice for high-temperature and corrosive environments.
2.Aerospace: fuel lines, hydraulic systems, structural elements. Due to its lightness and resistance to loads Lightweight nylon tube PA11 PA11 is used in space technology.
3.Medical: transfer and infusion tubes, catheters, sensors. PA11 is used as a food and medical tube Food grade nylon tube PA11.
4.Lubrication systems: PA11 is ideal for oil pumps and cooling systems, wear-resistant Abrasion-resistant PA11 hose and withstands pressure High-pressure hose PA11.
1.Extended service life
