The Nylon Rod, also known as Polyhexamethylene Adiptimide and Polycaprolactam (Cast) Type 6/6, is a versatile material widely used in self-lubricating bearing surfaces and slide-type applications. With exceptional resistance to chemicals, this material is a preferred choice in industries like Food Processing, Automotive, Electronics, and Mining. Offering excellent wear properties, impact resistance, and outstanding chemical resistance, Nylon Rods are suitable for applications requiring extended wear life, lightweight construction, and ease of fabrication. Available in various sizes and formulations, these rods are dimensionally stable, have low moisture absorption, and exhibit low thermal expansion.
