Nylon semi rigid tubing is used to pipe the system for two
reasons, ease of installation, and the fact that nylon tubing expands and contracts in very much the same manner as the hydraulic fluid (a most important factor). The expansion and contraction of the tubing reduces drift of the controls as temperature changes, thereby helping to keep all the components of the system
synchronized. The tubing is virgin nylon, which has been heat and light stabilised and contains no plasticizers.
The burst pressure of the tubing is in excess of 1200psi.
