Selecting Your Tubing
Select the outside diameter to match your fittings and choose the required pack option. The stated size refers to the outside diameter, not the internal bore. If you require a continuous length longer than 1 metre, please contact us before ordering.
Match the tubing and fittings to the fluid, working pressure and temperature of the system. For fuel applications, confirm compatibility with the specific fuel blend and operating conditions.
Preparation and Fitting
Cut the tubing square with a suitable tube cutter and keep the ends clean. Use fittings designed for the selected nylon tube size and follow their assembly instructions.
Route the tube without sharp bends or kinks, support it as required and protect it from abrasion and excessive heat.
