PVC and Nylon Tubing
Suppliers of Hydraulic and Industrial Hose and Fittings in the UK
PVC Tubing and Nylon Tubing
Reinforced PVC Hoses and unreinforced PVC tube can be used for general industrial air and water. Nylon Tubing can be used for oil lines, petrol tank breather pipes, greasing sheaths, pneumatic controls, bleed lines, brake controls and lubrication lines
Our range of tubing includes clear braided PVC tube manufactured to BS 6066 and flexible nylon tubing available in a selection of colours: black, blue, green, yellow, red and natural in 30 metre and 100 metre coils manufactured to BS 5409 part 1 and suitable for use in food-processing environments.
We are also able to provide non-standard, longer lengths eg 150mtr coil/length.

PVC Pipe
Polyvinyl Chloride Unplasticized has excellent chemical resistance and a broadband temperature pressure range. The operating temperature range of PVC pipe is 0ºC to 60ºC.
Nylon Tubing is manufactured to BS5409/1/2 tolerances, therefore it has good mechanical strength, is light weight and has a good chemical and vibration resistance. It is suitable for transporting most pneumatic, oils, chemicals, liquids and has many uses in engineering and pharmaceutical industries for pneumatic equipment, fuel pipes and lubrication.
Flexible and semi rigid grades are available as well as a low toxic version for food / beverage and medical industries.
Flexible nylon tubing has a high mechanical strength. Suitable for push-in, compression and barbed fittings. Very low moisture absorption and has a mirror smooth finish.
