Natural Cast Nylon 6 Plastic Plate 70mm Thick Load Bearing Grade

Nylon 6 Plastic Sheet Natural 70mm Thick Cast Machining Grade

Create robust, long lasting parts from this 70mm thick natural nylon 6 plastic sheet. It is cast from polyamide 6, a process that gives a denser, harder and more rigid material than ordinary extruded nylon. It copes with temperatures from 0°C to +90°C and has a clean natural finish that is food compliant, so it fits hygienic production lines as well as heavy engineering shops.

Casting keeps internal stress low, which means the plate stays flat and true when you cut deep or remove a lot of material. Turning, milling and drilling give smooth edges and accurate sizes, and the results are close to those of nylon 6.6. Larger sheet sizes are available for oversized work. With 70mm of solid depth, this stock is a smart replacement for bronze or steel in big, thick sectioned parts, offering lower weight, quieter running and less need for lubrication.
