When it comes to nylon tubing solutions, Zeus gives you more. More flexibility. More strength. More surface smoothness. More stiffness. More profiles. More options. More than the standard properties of typical nylons.

We start with common resins such as Zytel®, Rilsan®, Grilamid®, Vestamid®, Pebax® and work with our customers to develop tubing customized to the demands of their application. The following technical data sheets and information are intended to help you compare the basic properties of the nylons in each family.

When it is time to design your nylon tubing based subcomponent, we'll be there to assist with a wide range of technical expertise. If you have any questions about our nylon tubing or if you would like to evaluate samples please contact us to speak with your Technical Account Manager.
