Total Plastics, Inc. TECAMID™ (Nylon)

Description
Nylon was the first engineering resin. It has outstanding wear resistance and low frictional properties. It has very good temperature, chemical and impact properties. However, nylon’s one weakness is a propensity to absorb moisture and thus have poor dimensional stability. Tecamid™ 6/6 – type 6/6 general purpose standard grade nylon is extruded in Natural and Black Tecamid™ 6/12 – type 6/12 nylon has lower moisture absorption rates than nylon 6/6, hence superior dimensional stability Tecamid™ ST – ST is a super tough type 6/6 nylon with increased impact resistance and toughness over Tecamid™ 6/6 Tecamid™ HS – HS is a heat stabilized type 6/6 nylon with increased ability to withstand the negative effects of heat exposure and increased overall service temperature over Tecamid™ 6/6 Available Sizes ROD Lengths: 10’ for 3/16” to 4-3/4” thickness 5’ for 5” and over thickness PLATE Plate Sizes: 1/32” to 3” thickness inclusive are 2’ x 4’ 3-3/4” to 4” thickness inclusive are 1’ x 2’
