Chemical Resistance
For use of LLDPE with chemicals or potentially
aggressive liquids, please refer to our Technical Service Department.
NOTE: When using cleaning agents
or other potentially aggressive liquids, please ensure compatibility
with tubing and fittings. LLDPE is not recommended for mineral oils,
gases and fuels or high pressure compressed air / pneumatic systems.

| Pneumatics
Applications |
| John Guest
LLDPE tube is suitable for pneumatic applications providing
pressure is maximum 10 bar @ 20°C
(150psi @ 70°F). At elevated
temperatures (50°C+) mineral oil
will degrade LLDPE tube and, therefore, LLDPE tube used in
pneumatic circuits should be periodically checked and
replaced if necessary.
Burst Pressures are approximately 3 times
the maximum working pressure.
|
Tube Inserts
If the tube
is used in a warm water system a tube insert is necessary.

Part No.
TSM1209S
Insert for
12mm tube is shown.
Please note
maximum pressure rating for a 'system' depends on the lowest rated
component, eg. most John Guest fittings have a different rating than
the tube ratings shown above.
