Would 10mm id 12mm od rigid nylon pipe and the associated quick fit connectors be suitable to run some airlines from compressor to my bench?
Bench is about 10' away

If it's sold as suitable for compressed air by a reputable supplier you'll be OK. Some plastic pipe has a tendency to shatter under pressure when subjected to an impact.

What CFM are you moving? The 8mm blue nylon air line is easier to route and is certified to move 43cfm.

Its what I have run around my garage to 5 airline points. I have used the quick connect fittings to join it together and into the regulators. Air tight and easy to rig.

Or if it's likely to be hit by welding or grinding sparks use Dekabon tubing, uses same pushfit type connectors.
