Description

Nylon 6 Lubricant Filled Red Sheet contains a solid lubricant additive making it particularly suitable for sliding applications. Due to the lubrication and additives in the material a sustainable lubricating effect is achieved for the whole life cycle. Also the undesirable stick-slip tendency is reduced.

Product characteristics include excellent sliding properties, extraordinary wear resistance, low moisture absorption and dimensional stability. Typical applications include bearings, gears, slide/guide rails, actuators, feeder wheels, sprockets, curve guides and chain guides. Our Lubricant Filled Nylon 6 also meets the requirements of EU Regulation Nr. 10/2011 as well as the FDA requirement 21 DFR § 177.1500 and can be used in the production of components which come into direct contact with food.

Nylon 6 Lubricant Filled Red Sheet is a material well suited to CNC routing, CNC milling and CNC turning. If you have a requirement for machined or finished Nylon 6 components please ask the Plastock team for more information.
