Description
Nylon 6 Plastic Sheet Natural 80mm Thick Cast Durable Grade
Produce tough, heavy section parts from this 80mm thick natural nylon 6 plastic sheet. It is made by casting polyamide 6, which gives a stronger, stiffer and harder material than standard extruded nylon. It works reliably in temperatures from 0°C to +90°C, and its clean natural finish is food compliant, making it suitable for hygienic processing areas as well as busy engineering workshops.
Thanks to the casting process, internal stress stays low, so the sheet remains stable when you cut deep pockets or remove a large amount of material. It turns, mills and drills cleanly, giving accurate sizes and smooth finishes, and its performance is close to nylon 6.6. Larger sheet sizes are available for oversized jobs. At 80mm, this is one of our thickest sections, giving you the depth to make bulky components from one solid piece. It is a practical substitute for metal where you want less weight, quieter operation and good resistance to friction.
