Nylon is commonly used in various applications such as automotive parts, firearms, electrical components, marine hardware, and industrial machinery due to its high strength, toughness, and resistance to abrasion.
Nylon Advantages:
Tensile Strength: Nylon is suitable for applications requiring durability and load-bearing capabilities.
Resilience and Toughness: Nylon can withstand impact and heavy use without easily breaking or deforming.
Chemical Resistance: Nylon has an outstanding resistance to a wide range of chemicals, especially aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, alkalis, greases, fuels, lubricants, and ketones.
Low Coefficient of Friction: Nylon has a low coefficient of friction making it suitable for applications where smooth movement or sliding is required, such as bearings and gears.
Lightweight: Nylon is lightweight compared to many metals, making it a preferred choice in applications where weight is a concern.
Temperature Range for Application
Nylon PA6: Operating temperature range of -30C to 80C, Heat Deflection up to 150C (short-term)
Nylon PA66: Operating Temperature range of -40C to 120C, Heat Deflection up to 225C (Short-term)
