Polyamide (PA6)

Polyamide (PA6)

Polyamide  Rods, square, and profiles are manufactured using the Extrusion Techniqueand hence have excellent physical and Mechanical properties. Nylon offers good machinability for all types of metalworking equipment including lathes, grinders, millers and more. It is recommended to use sharp cutting tools, high machining speeds together with relatively slow feed. Nylon rods are used in various industrial applications including textile, railways, automobile, food processing,electrical and electronics, defence, appliance manufacturing industries and more.
