Cast Polyamide 6 (Cast Nylon 6 or PA 6) is one of the most versatile thermoplastics. Cast Nylon is a polymer characterised by its high molecular weight and its highly crystalline nature. With its unparalleled toughness, wear resistance, tensile strength, and lubricity, Nylon perfectly caters to the rigorous demands of modern engineers. This exceptional material serves as an ideal replacement for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, offering numerous benefits such as noise reduction, reduced lubrication requirements, and minimised downtime. Nylon can be easily machined using standard general-purpose machinery, allowing for seamless integration into various applications. Through the incorporation of additives such as oil, solid lubricants, thermal stabilisers, or specialised fillers, the inherent properties of cast nylon materials can be finely tuned to suit specific applications, thus offering a diverse array of materials tailored to various needs. Furthermore, cast polyamide 6 stands out as an excellent alternative to metal, boasting fatigue resistance, noise reduction, corrosion resistance, and lightweight properties. PA 6 is a low maintenance material when compared with other metals such as iron, aluminium, brass and bronze. ‘PA 6 S’ – Cast Polyamide Dimensionally Stable (Yellow) The PA 6 S grade has special additives added during the manufacturing process to bring out dimensional stability in the material. Dimensional stability is the ability of materials to maintain their size, even under changing external environmental conditions. As a result, a dimensionally stable plastic shows low moisture absorption as well as low thermal expansion. For More Details Contact Classic Polymers and Resins
