Nylon

Nylon is a partially crystalline thermoplastic and is also known as Polyamide or workhorse of engineering plastics. It possesses good mechanical strength, chemical and abrasion resistance with low frictional properties. Nylon sheets are stiff engineering plastic strong enough to replace the metal bushing and bearing often eliminating the requirement of external lubrication.

Electrical Properties

Chemical Resistance

The most sought nylons are PA66 and PA6 as they are tough, durable with special grade applications. Nylons are silky textured thermoplastic hailing from polyamide family of synthetic polymers. This material is easy to machine, fabricate and can be further processed by extrusion, molding, and casting.
