Cast and extruded, polyamide 6 is the most commonly used engineering material. With its high strength characteristics, exceptional friction properties and hardness replace phosphor bronze, brass and some steels. Polyamide 6 has a higher export and abrasion resistance than previously thought metal parts.
Applications:
Production and repair of sliding bearings, spacers, dental and worm gears, sliding bearings, high-loaded gears, cable pulleys and rollers, wheels for high-loaded conveyors, sliders (including chain pads), machine housings and others.
