⚡ At a Glance
- • Pressure Rating: Working pressure 1 MPa (150 Psi); burst pressure 3 MPa (435 Psi); bending radius 40 mm
- • Best for: Air brake systems, air suspension kits and fluid-transfer applications requiring DOT compliance
- • Not ideal for: Set-ups needing tubing larger than 1/4 inch or systems exceeding +60 °C operating temperature
1/4-inch nylon PA12 tubing, DOT-approved and supplied in a 10-metre length. Designed with 1 mm wall thickness and a -40 °C to +60 °C operating range.
Reliable braking performance, thanks to DOT-approved Nylon construction
PA12 (polyamide) construction combined with DOT-compliant manufacturing preserves wall integrity under pressure; 1 mm thickness resists deformation while remaining flexible. Rated working pressure is 1 MPa with a 3 MPa burst pressure.
Consistent air delivery at rated pressure supports dependable brake and suspension response during normal operation.
Easy routing and reduced kinking, with 1/4-inch OD and 40 mm bending radius
Nominal 1/4-inch outer diameter and flexible polyamide material allow tight bends without kinking, using a specified minimum bending radius of 40 mm. Lightweight construction aids manoeuvring during installation.
Simpler installation in cramped chassis spaces and fewer reruns when routing through tight areas.
Durable in harsh temperatures, thanks to -40 °C to +60 °C rating
Material formulation retains elasticity across the stated range, resisting embrittlement at low temperatures and softening at higher temperatures up to +60 °C. Designed for repeated flexing and impact resistance.
Suitable for vehicles and workshops operating in cold winters or warm engine bays without rapid degradation.
