Abstract
A laminated air brake tubing includes inner and outer nylon layers with an intermediate fiber reinforcing layer. The tubing further includes one and preferably two layers of high density polyethylene positioned adjacent either of said nylon layers. The polyethylene layers are cross-linked preferably by irradiation. Further, the high density polyethylene layer may include compatibilizing agents preventing delaminating. The air brake tubing of the present invention meets the current requirements for air brake tubing, however it is less expensive than currently available air brake tubing.
