PA Nylon Pneumatic Tube: Sizes, Pressure and Uses
A pneumatic tube can fit the port and still be wrong for the job. If its inside diameter is too small, an air tool may lose torque and a cylinder may slow during peak demand. If the wall is too thin for the operating conditions, the pressure margin may be inadequate. If the material is too flexible or too rigid for the route, installation and service life can suffer. The HOMIPNEU PA Nylon Pneumatic Tube for Air Systems and Tools is a semi-rigid polyamide air line for valves, cylinders, manifolds, machine panels, pneumatic tools and automation equipment. Published metric sizes cover 4 mm through 16 mm outside diameter, giving designers several flow and routing options for compact control circuits and larger machine branches. This guide explains how to choose PA nylon pneumatic tubing by outside diameter, inside diameter, airflow, pressure, temperature, bend radius and fitting compatibility. The objective is not simply to select the largest tube. It is to deliver the required air at the point of use while keeping the route practical, safe and economical. What Is PA Nylon…
