Nycast 6PA

About
Cast Nylons standard grades have delivered successful performance with and without lubrication in a wide variety of applications, particularly as a bearing material. They are light-weight, offer extremely good wear resistance, high tensile strength and high module of elasticity. This material is an off white unmodified type 6 nylon which is FDA, USDA, and 3A dairy compliant and can be used in the food industry. Cast Nylons Limited offers NYCAST 6PA Natural in more standard sizes that any manufacturer in the industry. The ability to cast nylon vs. extrusion allows Cast Nylons Limited to create custom Near Net Shapes with ease for special applications. Cast Nylons Limited also has the capability to produce NYCAST 6PA in 12 different colors. Custom colors are available as well. Typical applications for NYCAST 6PA Natural would include: Bearings, Wear Pads Gears, Valve seals Pulleys, Sprockets Sheaves, Wear Plate Wear Shoes, Thrust Washers Components in Food Processing Industry&&
