Black Nylon 6 Plastic Sheet 20mm Thick Cast Polyamide Stiffness

20mm Thick Black Nylon 6 Plastic Sheet High Strength Cast Grade

This 20mm thick black Nylon 6 plastic sheet is made from cast polyamide 6, a grade with clear advantages over the extruded alternative. The casting process gives it higher strength, stiffness and hardness, and it operates comfortably between 0°C and +90°C. With 20mm of material to work with, it is well suited to machining heavy, load carrying parts in one piece. It is food compliant, so it can also be used in hygienic production areas.

Where extruded nylon can move after cutting, cast Nylon 6 is not as stressed, so thick sections stay true once they leave the machine. It also machines better than extruded nylon, leaving smooth edges when you saw, drill or mill it. Good creep and wear resistance help finished parts hold their shape and surface under constant pressure, and its behaviour is similar to extruded nylon 6.6.

Oversized components are easy to plan for, because the sheet is available in larger sizes and avoids the need to join smaller pieces. The black colour suits workshop and plant environments. Together, the strength, stability and easy machining make this sheet a dependable material for lifting, gear and bearing applications.
