More About
Nylon (Polyamide) is one of the most widely used engineering thermoplastics, recognized for its excellent balance of mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties.
- High tensile and compressive strength
- Excellent wear and abrasion resistance
- Self-lubricating properties
- Good machinability
Product Range
