Nylon/Polyamide/PA Sheet

Product Description

Nylon/Polyamide/PA Sheet

Nylon is the ost widely used engineering plastic in the current market. With its good mechanical properties, wear resistance and self-lubricating function, it is widely used in the mechanical structures and spare parts .We can also fill the glass fiber and some other fillers to improve its properties, such as improving its rigidity, wear resistance and impact resistance.  

Characteristics
-Excellent wear resistance
-Good sliding properties
-High strength and toughness
-Self-lubricating
-Resistant to oil, weak acid and alkali
-Shock absorption
-Noise absorption
-Good electrical properties

What's the difference between cast nylon and extruded nylon ?  
The main difference is the manufacturing process. Cast nylon products are manufactured by a series of chemical reaction process. This allows products with extremely large dimensions and custom cast parts to be manufactured. Cast nylon owns better size stability and less water absorption. The crystallinity is greater so that wear resistance and machinability are better. Extruded absorbs more moisture and is thus tougher and has higher impact and vibration damping properties.

Applications
Gears
Gears made of nylon run quieter and wear longer without lubricating on processing equipment. (Prior materials: Bronze and steel)

Nozzle
MC nylon can save fabrication time and cost in this port cap and diffuser nozzle application. It only weighs only 1/7 the former parts making parts easier to handle and install. (Prior material: Stainless Steel)

Wear Pads
Wear pads made of nylon are light weight, able to bear heavy loads, are non-abrasive to mating surfaces. (Prior material: Bronze and cast iron covered with UHMW-PE)

Rollers, Wheels, Wear Components
Nylon offers better wear resistance, compressive strength and fatigue resistance than other materials in a variety of wear applications. (Prior materials: Steel, Aluminium, UHMW-PE, Injection Molded Nylon)
