EXCELLENT CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes) tube fittings have excellent resistance to acids, alkalis, dilute mineral acids, most organic acids, petroleum oils and greases, photographic solutions.

REDUCES INSTALLATION TIME
nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes) fittings offer a minimum of 36% saving in installation time compared to regular compression type fittings, or ordinary fittings for plastic tubing-a minimum of 77% savings compared to flare fittings.

To assemble the nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes) Fitting, just push the tubing into the fitting and tighten the nut 2 to 2½ full turns. There is no need to disassemble-no fumbling for a loose sleeve.

AVERAGE TIME REQUIRED TO ASSEMBLE FITTINGS  
          Type of                     Average Time
          Fitting                        Each Joint         
nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes)                         11.7 sec.
Regular Compression             18.5 sec.
Flare                                      48.2 sec.          
These studies made under shop conditions. While actual time may vary depending on field conditions, the relationship between time values should remain constant.

NO TUBING STRESS
The nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes) fitting eliminates the problem of plastic tube twist and stress during assembly. The nut revolves around the sleeve as it is tightened, preventing torque from being transmitted to the tubing. Design of the sleeve, nut and body assures excellent sealing and complete reliability.

MOLDED FOR STRENGTH
nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes) tube fittings are exceptionally strong and resistant to abuse. Made of molded Nylon, they are far stronger than machined fittings of similar composition. (Sleeves are made of acetal copolymer to provide maximum performance.)
TEMPERATURES
The maximum recommended operating temperatures for Nylo-Seal fittings is 200oF. for continuous service, or 250oF. intermittent operation. Maximum service temperature is limited to the factor recommended for the tubing when this is less than the temperature specified for the fitting.

FITTING AND TUBING
RECOMMENDATIONS

nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes) fittings can be used to couple most types of thermoplastic tubing:

Under certain conditions of temperature and pressure variation an insert should be used to stabilize the difference in expansion and contraction rates of fittings and plastic tubing.

USE FOR NUMEROUS APPLICATIONS
nylo-seal.jpg (1311 bytes) fittings are excellent for instrument, lubricant, air, hydrocarbon fuel, oil coolant, low pressure hydraulic lines, laboratory, chemical and many other applications.
