Description
Nylon has been recognized as a rugged engineering plastic since its development by E. I. DuPont in the 1930s. Aimed as a substitute for metal, nylon’s light weight and corrosion and abrasion resistance have made it an attractive design choice.
NewAge® Industries’ NYLOTUBE® is offered in the nylon-12 formulation and is typically used in various industrial applications.
Nylon’s elastic memory is exceptional and can withstand repeated flexing over a long period of time without fatigue or fracture. This makes it a popular choice for retractable coils. NYLOTUBE also offers high-impact resistance, even at subfreezing temperatures, and low moisture absorption to minimize dimensional instability.
