Nylon 6 Cast Natural Sheet

Chemical Family
Polyamides

PAR Group Nylon 6 Cast Natural Sheet is a common engineering plastic due to its ease of machinability. It combines high strength, stiffness and hardness properties with good creep and wear resistance. Nylon 6 Sheet - Cast Natural also has good heat aging properties, is electrically insulating and is resistant to the majority of oils, chemicals, fuels and cleaning fluids. Below shows the standard sheet availability, many of which, are manufactured in-house utilizing our own Nylon Casting facilities. Many of these are available to buy online by clicking the link above. We can also manufacture large sheets, rods, tubes or bespoke shapes. Nylon 6 Sheet - Cast Natural is available to buy online at PAR Direct by clicking the link above.
