Nylobrade® NSF Listed Braid Reinforced PVC Hose
Nylobrade is made from non-toxic ingredients selected from those sanctioned by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in food contact applications. Its NSF certification makes Nylobrade a good choice for drinking water applications, those involving water at temperatures up to 60°C (140°F), and food processing applications.
Nylobrade is generally unaffected by most oxidizing and reducing agents. Diluted acids and alkalies have little effect, though if highly concentrated tend to make the hose less pliable. If chemical resistance is in question, in-plant tests are suggested.
Gasoline and oils will harden PVC over periods of intermittent use. In these applications, continuous use will slow the hardening process.
Nylobrade HP (High Pressure) sizes 3/8” ID and up have a tighter braid pattern and therefore reduce the visual flow contact and increase the hose’s resistance to bending and flexing. Heavier walls on similar IDs will be more resistant to kinking.
- Phthalate-, DEHP- and BPA-free

NOTE: Values listed are typical for the material used in manufacture, except where noted, and are meant only as a guide to aid in design. Field testing should be performed to find the actual values for your application.
Cut Pieces – When tubing comes in, for example, 100 foot coils, and you need it in 10’ sections, tubing can be cut. Request a quote.
Size – Tubing is stocked in common I.D. and O.D. sizes, but this product can be custom extruded in other sizes. Let’s talk about what you need. Minimum quantities apply.
Color – Have your tubing colored to match equipment, company colors, or identify line (hot or cold, indoor or outdoor, chemicals, etc..).
Opaque and transparent colors may be accommodated. Minimum quantities apply.
Custom Layline – Tailor the look of your company’s product by printing your tubing with your logo, part number, size information, date code, or other data that you specify. Printed products can reinforce and enhance your company identity, create products traceability, or identify capabilities or limitations of the item, all at a cost effective price.
In-line Cutting – Tubing can be cut to a specific length at the end of the extrusion line, accomplishing two processes – your extrusion and your cutting-to-length part – saving you time and cost. It also ensures that you received a straight piece with no coil set.
Hot Bond – Thermoplastic tubing is bonded together longitudinally using a proprietary heat process, resulting in an integrated ribbon of tubing. Hot bonding saves time and money on installations by eliminating the need to route multiple lines. It provides a neat appearance, offers easy line traceability for troubleshooting, and saves space. Prototyping is easy, and both long and short runs are welcome.
Heat Form – Fabricated shapes can eliminate problems such as kinking and often make installations easier. By using heat and special tooling in a controlled environment, custom shapes can be created such as elbows, twists, coils, and other various complex forms. All of these can be additionally incorporated together.
Hardness – This product can be custom extruded in a hardness, or durometer, that is harder or softer according to the unique needs of your application.
All custom products are subject to minimum order quantities and lead times. For other custom options, please contact us.
