Nylon

 
Nylon is the most common engineering thermoplastic. Nylon posesses a wide range of mechanical properties that merit it's label, the "workhorse" of engineering thermoplastics. Nylon exhibits good impact and abrasion resistance to fatigue. We offer several types of extruded nylon in various grades with improved characteristics. This allows for material selection to meet desired characteristics, such as chemical resistance, reduced water absorbtion, and heat stabilisation.
