Premium Nylon 6 Plastic Rod Natural 32mm Dia Tough Cast Round Bar

Reliable High Quality Cast Nylon Rod for Large Gears and Boom Pads

This premium natural Nylon 6 plastic rod, 32mm dia, is made from cast polyamide 6, a grade that offers higher strength, stiffness and hardness than extruded nylon. It works dependably in temperatures from 0°C to +90°C, and the cast nylon 6 range is food compliant, so it suits clean production areas as well as busy workshops.

Cast nylon is not as stressed as extruded nylon, so it machines better and finished parts keep their size. Its characteristics are similar to extruded nylon 6.6, with good creep resistance and a long wear life under constant loads. As a lightweight alternative to metal, it can help reduce weight, noise and the need for frequent lubrication.

• Boom pads

This solid round bar is easy to cut and turn into bearings and bushes, and it can be machined into large gears, gear racks, crane sheaves and boom pads to your own drawing. The hard, smooth surface slides well against steel and resists many oils, greases and common workshop chemicals, so upkeep stays low.

Engineers and maintenance teams choose this rod for lifting equipment, drive parts and sliding assemblies that need a long service life. The natural colour makes marking out and inspection simple. Order the length you need and start machining.
