Description

Natural Nylon 6 Sheet 50mm Thick Cast Engineering Plastic

This 50mm thick natural cast nylon sheet is a heavy section engineering plastic built for industrial strength. Produced by casting polyamide 6, it delivers greater strength, stiffness and surface hardness than standard extruded nylon, while handling working temperatures from 0°C to +90°C. The natural off white finish is food compliant, so it can be used safely in processing and packaging environments as well as general engineering.

The casting process leaves far less internal stress in the material, so parts hold their shape and cut cleanly on the lathe or milling machine. Performance is close to extruded nylon 6.6, with the added benefit of larger available sizes. Thick 50mm stock gives machinists plenty of depth to produce big, load carrying components from a single solid block. It is also a practical alternative to metal for parts that need to run quietly and smoothly.
