Description

Cast Polyamide 6 Rod for Heavy-Duty Machining and Wear Parts

Our Nylon 6 Plastic Rod in natural colour, 130mm dia, is manufactured from cast polyamide 6, a material that outperforms standard extruded nylon in strength, stiffness and hardness. With an operating temperature range of 0°C to +90°C, it is a dependable choice for demanding mechanical applications. The cast nylon 6 range is also food compliant, making it suitable for a wider variety of industries.

Unlike extruded nylon, cast Nylon 6 is less internally stressed, which means it holds its shape better and machines more cleanly. Fabricators and toolrooms will appreciate how easily it can be turned, drilled and milled to tight tolerances. Its characteristics are similar to extruded nylon 6.6, offering excellent creep resistance and outstanding wear resistance, even under heavy, continuous loads.
