What temperature range can Nylon 6 Extruded be used in?

Nylon 6 extruded used as a engineering plastic shows a usable temperature span from around –40 °C up to +70 °C (long-term service), making it suitable for many general-engineering environments.

How does Nylon 6 Extruded compare to other grades?

If you need a balance of strength, wear-resistance, machinability and food-compliance at moderate temperatures, Nylon 6 Extruded is a strong choice. However, if you require very high temperature resistance (> 100 °C) or extremely low moisture absorption, alternative grades (e.g., cast nylon or other polymers) may be more appropriate

How does Nylon 6 Extruded perform in terms of chemical resistance and wear properties?

Nylon 6 Extruded offers excellent wear and abrasion resistance, making it ideal for components subject to friction and movement, such as gears, bearings, and wear strips. It also provides good resistance to many oils, greases, fuels, and cleaning agents. However, it is less resistant to strong acids and alkalis, so chemical exposure should be evaluated based on specific application conditions.
