Description
The Premium Nylon 6 Lubricant Filled Red Rod is designed with a solid lubricant additive, making it particularly suitable for sliding applications. This innovative material provides a sustainable lubricating effect throughout its entire life cycle, significantly reducing the undesirable stick-slip tendency.
Product characteristics include:
- Excellent sliding properties
- Extraordinary wear resistance
- Low moisture absorption
- Dimensional stability
Typical applications of this material include:
- Bearing components
- Gears
- Slide and guide rails
- Actuators
- Feeder wheels
- Sprockets
- Curve guides
- Chain guides
This Lubricant Filled Nylon 6 also meets the requirements of EU Regulation Nr. 10/2011 and the FDA requirement 21 DFR § 177.1500, allowing its use in the production of components that come into direct contact with food.
The Premium Nylon 6 Lubricant Filled Red Rod is particularly well suited for CNC turning, billeting, and precision grinding. If you require machined or finished Nylon 6 components, please inquire for more information.
