The addition of MDS results in a nylon with exceptional wear resistance as well as self-lubricating properties.

Often used to make gears and wear strips, these cast nylon 6 sheets and bars withstand higher temperatures and are easier to machine than standard nylon 6/6 sheets and bars.

A good choice for making sprockets and pulleys, these cast nylon 6 tubes withstand higher temperatures and are easier to machine than standard nylon 6/6 tubes.

This nylon stays lubricated over time because it’s filled with oil. Use it to fabricate parts for hard-to-reach places where adding lubricants would be difficult.

Because this 6/12 material absorbs less water than standard nylon 6/6, it holds its shape better. It’s often machined into hose fittings and valve components.

Widely used to make parts that require autoclaving, polysulfone is a hard, rigid material that’s easy to machine and thermoform. It maintains its physical properties when heated, even when exposed to steam.

When excellent chemical resistance is combined with an ability to hold tight tolerances, the result is PPS—a material that’s widely machined into parts for chemical-processing applications. It is comparable to Techtron and Ryton.
