POLYAMIDE (PA6)
This material features low density and high thermal stability. It is characterised by extremely high wear resistance, a very good coefficient of friction and very good resistance to extreme temperatures. Additionally, it has very good chemical resistance and is oil resistant. The plastics do, however, tend to absorb moisture and therefore exhibit poorer dimensional stability than other plastics. We distinguish between several classes of abrasion resistance of the product.
