Plastic Tubing

In a pneumatic machine, the tube is the path that carries compressed air from one point to another. The tube needs to be flexible enough for routing, but its size, pressure rating and bend radius still have to suit the installation. We supply Uflow Automation plastic tubing in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, for pneumatic air line applications where proper tube selection is required.

Plastic Tubing for Clean Pneumatic Air Routing

Uflow Automation offers polyurethane tube in different colours and sizes for pneumatic circuits. The listed range includes black, transparent, yellow, red and blue polyurethane tubes. Colour options can be useful when different air lines need to be identified during machine installation or maintenance. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

The tubing is available for different outside diameters, including Ø4, Ø6, Ø8, Ø10, Ø12, Ø14 and Ø16 mm. The correct tube size should be selected according to the connected fitting, air flow requirement and pneumatic circuit arrangement. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Polyurethane Tube Sizes and Colours

Pressure Changes With Temperature

One point that often gets missed during tube selection is temperature. The listed maximum pressure for the Uflow polyurethane tube is 10 bar at ambient temperatures from 5°C to 30°C. The recommended pressure reduces as temperature increases. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

This table should be checked along with the actual application conditions before selecting the tubing. Pressure, temperature and tube size shouldn't be considered separately.

Colour Coding Can Make Air Lines Easier to Follow

Uflow Automation lists black, transparent, yellow, red and blue polyurethane tube options. Using different colours for different pneumatic lines can make a machine easier to understand during installation and service work. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

For example, maintenance staff may find it easier to trace a particular line when several tubes run close to each other. The colour itself doesn't change the basic application requirement, so the tube specification still needs to match the operating conditions.

Proper Cutting and Tube Insertion Matter

A tube connection can leak if the tube end is cut poorly or isn't pushed fully into the fitting. Uflow Automation recommends cutting the tube square and burr-free with a suitable tube cutter, followed by cleaning the tube end. The tube should then be inserted fully into the fitting up to the positive stop. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

The tube should also be routed within its specified minimum bend radius. Forcing a small-radius bend can put stress on the tube and connection. A simple installation check can prevent avoidable leakage problems.
