Description
Nylon 6 Plastic Sheet Natural 16mm Thick Cast Polyamide 6
Our Nylon 6 plastic sheet in natural colour is 16mm thick and made from cast polyamide 6, a high performance engineering plastic. Cast nylon 6 offers improved characteristics over the extruded alternative, including higher 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 natural finish is food compliant, making this cast nylon sheet suitable for a wide range of industrial and food related environments.
Cast nylon 6 is produced with lower internal stress, which makes it easier to machine accurately into precision parts. It delivers similar performance to extruded nylon 6.6 while being available in larger sizes, giving engineers, fabricators and maintenance teams more flexibility when producing heavy duty parts.
