Description
Product Overview
PA6 30% Glass Fiber Compound is a high-performance polyamide reinforced with 30% glass fiber, offering superior strength, thermal stability, and chemical resistance. This material, also known as Nylon 6 or polycaprolactam, is engineered for demanding applications, providing excellent mechanical properties and durability. Its low viscosity ensures better moldability compared to PA66, making it ideal for precision components.
Key Features
- High Tensile Strength: Achieves a tensile strength of approximately 160 MPa for robust performance.
- Thermal Stability: Maintains integrity at temperatures up to 223°C (melting point).
- Chemical Resistance: Resists oils, solvents, and other chemicals, though it absorbs moisture faster than PA66.
- Dimensional Stability: Enhanced by 30% glass fiber reinforcement, minimizing warpage.
- Wear Resistance: Hard, crystalline structure ensures durability in high-load applications.
Applications
- Automotive: Engine covers, gears, and structural components requiring high strength.
- Electrical: Insulators, connectors, and cable connections due to excellent electrical insulation.
- Industrial: Machinery parts, bearings, and tools benefiting from toughness and corrosion resistance.
- Consumer Goods: High-strength components for appliances, sporting equipment, and more.
