Natural Nylon 6 Sheets - Extruded

Natural Nylon 6 Sheet - Extruded

Extruded Nylon 6 offers strength, stiffness and good mechanical properties whilst offering good electrical insulation and chemical resistance at a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +70°C). Nylon 6 is regarded as a general purpose material and is food compliant.

Extruded Nylon 6 Sheet is made by forcing the material through a die. The benefit of this that extruded nylon 6 sheets more accurate in terms of thickness than Cast Nylon 6. The downside is that Extruded Nylon 6 can have more internal stress.  Our plastic engineers advise that it is a little more difficult to machine than Cast Nylon 6 and can melt more easily while machining.
