About the AirTAC PA6
The AirTAC PA6 is a nylon 6 air tube for higher working pressures. Working pressure is 2.0-3.5 MPa at 23 °C depending on the size, the temperature range -10 to +70 °C, and it is sold by the roll: 4 × 2.5 mm in 200 m, 6 × 4 mm in 100 m, 8 × 6 mm in 100 m, 10 × 7.5 mm in 100 m, 12 × 9 mm in 100 m.
PA6 and PA12 tubes are widely used where the pressure is high. They hold their size, have low permeation and resist ageing, oil and heat, which widens where they can be used. The working pressure falls as the temperature rises: at 40 °C 74%, 60 °C 57%, 80 °C 47%, 100 °C 40% of the 20 °C rating.

Where the PA6 Is Used
Higher-pressure lines
Rated up to 3.5 MPa at 23 °C, well above PU tube.
Oily or warm areas
Resists oil, heat and ageing where PU tube would not last.
Fixed runs
Holds its size and shape in static piping along machine frames.
Choosing the Right PA6 Configuration
Start with the size. The outer diameter must match the push-in fitting (a 4 mm tube needs a 4 mm fitting); the inner diameter sets the flow. Sizes: 4 × 2.5 mm, 6 × 4 mm, 8 × 6 mm, 10 × 7.5 mm, 12 × 9 mm.
Then the roll length (100/200 m; not every size comes in every length) and the color. Colors help to tell circuits apart: blue (BU), black (BK), orange (GE), white (WH), red (R), yellow (Y), green (GN), natural (N).
AirTAC PA6 FAQ
Working pressure at 23 °C (one third of the burst pressure): 4 × 2.5 mm 3.5 MPa (burst 11.0 MPa); 6 × 4 mm 3.0 MPa (burst 10.0 MPa); 8 × 6 mm 2.0 MPa (burst 7.0 MPa); 10 × 7.5 mm 2.0 MPa (burst 7.0 MPa); 12 × 9 mm 2.0 MPa (burst 7.0 MPa). It falls at higher temperatures: 74% at 40 °C, 57% at 60 °C, 47% at 80 °C, 40% at 100 °C.
4 × 2.5 mm 30 mm; 6 × 4 mm 45 mm; 8 × 6 mm 65 mm; 10 × 7.5 mm 75 mm; 12 × 9 mm 100 mm.
Push-in (one-touch) fittings are sized by the tube's outer diameter: use a fitting for the same OD as the tube, for example a 6 mm fitting for 6 × 4 mm tube.
By the roll, 100/200 m depending on the size. The order code ends with the length in meters and the color code.
