Material details
Nylon PA6, also known as Polyamide 6, is a versatile, high-performance engineering thermoplastic that excels in applications requiring strength, durability, and resistance to wear and fatigue. It is particularly known for its high impact strength, low friction, and good chemical resistance. With excellent machinability, PA6 is ideal for precision components such as gears, bearings, bushings, and automotive parts. It performs well under moderate loads and provides good dimensional stability over a wide temperature range. Nylon PA6 also offers natural resistance to abrasion and is commonly used in functional prototypes, wearable parts, and components exposed to harsh environments. Its low moisture absorption rate and good electrical insulating properties make it suitable for electrical components and high-performance mechanical systems.
