14.5–18 in outside diameter (OD). Select OD, then inside diameter (ID).
Sold each (EA): quantity 1 = one complete tube. Standard length is 26 or 52 in, fixed by the OD/ID combination; confirm the selected length. Length is not a separate option.
Choosing Natural
A starting point for general wear components. Compare Oil-Filled when internal lubrication is needed, or Blue for heat-stabilized material.
Tube is machining stock for bushings, sleeves and rings, not finished bearings or pressure-rated pipe. Nominal wall thickness = (OD − ID) ÷ 2.
Allow for machining: dimensions are nominal stock sizes, not finished-part tolerances. Nylon absorbs moisture; consider dimensional change, temperature, chemicals and operating loads when specifying close-fitting parts.
Food contact: The manufacturer reports Natural and Natural-Oil meet 21 CFR 177.1500. Confirm the supplied grade’s declaration for your food-contact conditions; this does not certify the finished part.
