SUPERLENE PA6 (Nylon 6)

SUPERLENE PA6 (Nylon 6) is a plastic in the polyamide (Polyamide or Nylon) group, characterized as a semi-crystalline thermoplastic. It possesses outstanding properties such as wear resistance, low coefficient of friction, thermal stability, and impact strength, making Nylon 6 (PA6) a popular material used across various industries.

Key Features of Nylon 6 (PA6):

• High Wear Resistance: Nylon 6 exhibits excellent resistance to abrasion, making it suitable for components that experience continuous friction or movement.

• Low Coefficient of Friction: This allows nylon parts to move smoothly without the need for additional lubricants.

• Thermal Stability: Nylon 6 can withstand high temperatures effectively, making it ideal for applications in hot environments.

• High Mechanical Strength: PA6 has a high strength-to-weight ratio, providing excellent resistance to impact and load.

• Lightweight: With low density, PA6 is suitable for components where weight reduction is essential.

Applications of Nylon 6 (PA6):

• Automotive Industry: Used in parts that require wear resistance and durability, such as gears, bearings, and load-bearing components.

• Electrical and Electronics Industry: Employed in electrical insulation and components that need electrical stability and heat resistance.

• Machinery Industry: Utilized in machinery parts requiring wear resistance and friction reduction, such as rollers and wheels.
