Material
Nylon (Polyamide)
Nylon rod, sheet and tube for engineering and industrial applications. Low friction, high wear resistance.

About Nylon
Nylon (polyamide) is one of the most widely used engineering plastics. It offers an excellent combination of strength, wear resistance and low friction, making it ideal for bearings, gears, bushings and wear components. Available in cast and extruded grades.
Properties
- High strength and toughness
- Low friction — ideal for bearings and slides
- Excellent wear resistance
- Self-lubricating — reduces need for grease
- Good chemical resistance
Available Forms
Cast nylon (Nylatron, Sustamid) rod up to 500mm diameter, extruded rod and sheet, tube, and oil-filled grades. Natural, black and blue.
