Designed for extreme wear resistance, these nylon 6/6 sheets are filled with Kevlar to last up to 20 times longer than unfilled nylon. They’re also stronger than glass-filled nylon and withstand higher temperatures. Known as Hydlar Z, this material is often used for parts that are continuously exposed to wear and abrasion, such as wear strips and bushings.
Moisture- and Wear-Resistant Nylon Sheets

- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: ASTM D5989, ASTM D6779
Because these nylon 6/12 sheets absorb less water, they hold their shape better than standard nylon 6/6. They’re also better electrical insulators. They have a slippery surface that reduces wear, so they’re often machined into valve components and other parts that are subject to friction.
Slippery MDS-Filled Wear-Resistant
Nylon Sheets and Strips
These wear-resistant nylon 6/6 sheets and strips are modified with MDS for a self-lubricating surface that’s more slippery than standard nylon. Use them to machine high-friction parts, such as gears, wear strips, and bearings.
