SUSTAMID 6G PLUS
Semi-crystalline thermoplastic
Polymerized Polyamide 6
Properties
- High moisture absorption up to 3% in a standard environment. This results in increased impact strength. In thin-walled elements, it results in a reduction in mechanical strength and dimensional stability
- Excellent sliding properties
- Extremely high abrasion resistance
- High mechanical strength associated with high impact toughness
- Excellent workability
- Good adhesive properties
- Good weldability
Fields of application
- Usable universally for parts requiring high load; Often used as a substitute for aluminum or bronze. It also allows the production of large-volume parts.
- Mechanical engineering
E.g. Sliding parts, housings and wheels - Application at sea
E.g. Chassis, winches - Vehicle design
E.g. Sliding parts, lifting equipment, rope pulleys - Food industry
E.g. Sliding parts, conveyor star, spiral conveyors
