mechanical strength at elevated temperatures is much less than with other types of plastic tube. It retains its flexibility at sub-zero temperatures. Nylon
tube is odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, fungus and corrosion resistant, readily sterilized in steam or boiling water. This tube has excellent chemical
resistance being unaffected by gasoline, oils, greases, and organic solvents. Lighter than metal, nylon tube makes for ease in handling and installing.
