Sustamid® PA66 Natural
SUSTAMID® Nylon Type 66 is made from a highly viscous polymer that offers outstanding strength and tenacious properties over a wider temperature range and is also resistant to most chemicals and corrosive media.
This grade of polyamide is characterised by the following properties:
- Highest stiffness and hardness within the non-reinforced polyamides group
- Highest creep resistance within the non-reinforced polyamides group
- Low impact strength and mechanical damping
- Excellent service temperature range of -30°C to 95°C with short-term peak excursions to 170°C
- Good long term behaviour to heat ageing
- High resistance to oils, greases, aliphatic / aromatic and most halogenated hydrocarbons
- Not resistant to strong acids
- Excellent dimensional stability
- Less impact resistance than type 6
- Excellent sliding properties
- Low deformation under load and compression
- High wear resistance
- Good bearing properties
- Excellent electrical insulating properties
- EC & FDA approved for food applications
Fields of application: friction bearings, gears, slider plates, high-pressure guide rails, wheels, rollers, electrical insulators, and pump bearings.
