Additional Specifications |
In addition to being easier to machine than standard nylon 6/6, these cast nylon 6 sheets are also better electrical insulators. They have a wear-resistant, slippery surface that reduces friction. Use them to make gears, sprockets, and wear strips. This material is comparable to Nylatron and Nycast.
