Nylon
Nylon is one of the original engineering thermoplastic materials boasting an ideal balance of strength and toughness.
Nylon
Nylon is one of the original engineering thermoplastic materials boasting an ideal balance of strength and toughness.
Natural extruded and cast grades are FDA, USDA and 3A-Dairy compliant. Cast nylon possess all of the main characteristics of nylon. It works well when shorter cycles are desired versus larger machining processes. Extruded nylon is better suited for extended production cycles, and is typically preferred overcast when larger quantities of parts are being made.
Ease Of Use
Nylon is extremely easy to machine and easy to handle and maintain compared to metals.
Metal Replacement
Extruded nylon has great temperature and chemical properties making it an ideal replacement for metal in various applications.
Industry Compliant
Natural extruded and cast grades are FDA, USDA and 3A-Dairy compliant.
