Nylon 6 Rod

Following are the features of Nylon 6 Rod:
Trade names: Polyamides, PA, Nylon
Available Shapes: Sheets, Rods, Tubes, Plates
Color: Natural White, Black, Green, Others

The most common engineering nylons are PA6 and PA66. Nylon stock shapes are produced by either extrusion or casting. The process is in part a determinant of the nylon properties of the end product. Modifiers are added to enhance desirable characteristics.

Advantages:

Nylon Rod and Nylon Sheet are tough, durable, general purpose engineering material with special grades for specialty applications. Typical application conditions would be medium speed and temperature in a rugged, abrasive, impact and high load environment.

Disadvantages:

Poor dimension stability, electrical and mechanical properties, may become affected by absorbing moisture or water, acidproof ability not good, cana t dye with acid or touch overmuch acid, weak light fastness, low endurance in pollution

Key Features:

Excellent bearing properties
High impact strength and toughness
Low power factor requirements
High wear resistance
Very good sliding properties

Applications:

High load bearings
Wear pads
Support and Guide wheels
Conveyor and Tension rollers
Wire rope sheaves
Buffer pads
Gears
