Nylon 66

*Please note engineering plastics are semi-finished, and as such don’t normally come with protective film and may have surface marks. Not recommended for aesthetic purposes. There is a tolerance on the thickness and/or diameter, please contact us for more information - Overall size/length tolerance +/- 3mm.

Nylon 66 is noted for its high temperature resistance and high tensile strength. It has higher mechanical strength, stiffness and toughness than Nylon 6. This particular thermoplastic also has superior machining properties and exhibits better heat, wear and creep resistance than extruded Nylon 6. Nylon 66 thermoplastics offer many benefits and advantages than those of Nylon 6 thermoplastic, including higher temperature rating, lower impact strength and higher wear resistance.

CUTTING SERVICE - We offer a FREE cut-to-size service*

If you require a custom size and your size is smaller than one of our standard size sheets, you can order the size above what you require and during checkout add your cutting request to the ‘message to seller’ box and save the message. Alternatively, you can send us a direct email or phone our sales team.

*Minimum width of cut is 75mm. We lose 3mm on each cut due to the width of the blade. Tolerance +/-1mm. Limited to 4 cuts per product. 90 degree cuts only. If you require a shape, more cuts or a piece less than 75mm, we will send you a quote before completing the work.
