Engineering Plastics Wearabl Polyamides Casting Nylon Rod is the generic name for a family of long-chain polymeric amides. General characteristics of the nylons include toughness,strength,abrasion and fatigue resistance,low coefficient of friction,resiliency and heat resistance.
Many of these properties can be enhanced by the addition of fillers such as molybdenum disulphide. Nylons are resistant to hydrocarbons,alkalies,ketones and esters.
Also known as Polyamide (PA), Nylon is a partially crystalline thermoplastic and is known as the workhorse of engineering plastics due to its variety of properties.
Because of its good mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, chemical, thermal and low friction properties, it has earned a reputation as an excellent bearing material. Hardness and strength, yet toughness and tenacity are the combination that makes Nylon so versatile and the solution for many difficult applications.
