Cast Nylon 6 Sheets - Natural
Cast Nylon 6 has improved characteristics over the extruded alternative.

Extruded Nylon 6. The downside is the thickness tolerance is greater.
Cast nylon 6 offers a higher strength, stiffness, hardness and an improved operating temperature of 0°C to +90°C. Cast Nylon 6 is food compliant.
