Description
The Premium Lubricant Filled Nylon 6 Red Sheet features a solid lubricant additive, making it particularly suitable for sliding applications. This material provides a sustainable lubricating effect throughout its entire life cycle, effectively reducing the undesirable stick-slip tendency.
Key characteristics of this product include:
- Excellent sliding properties
- Extraordinary wear resistance
- Low moisture absorption
- Dimensional stability
Typical applications encompass bearings, gears, slide/guide rails, actuators, feeder wheels, sprockets, curve guides, and chain guides. The Lubricant Filled Nylon 6 also complies with the requirements of EU Regulation Nr. 10/2011 and FDA requirement 21 DFR § 177.1500, making it suitable for components that come into direct contact with food.
This material is well-suited for CNC routing, CNC milling, and CNC turning. For any needs regarding machined or finished Nylon 6 components, please inquire for further information.
