Strong, stiff, heat- and abrasion-resistant, nylon is the engineering resin of choice for mechanical and under-hood parts. We source PA 6 and PA 66 in unfilled, glass-filled and impact-modified grades.
Get a nylon quoteNylon offers an excellent balance of strength, toughness, fatigue and wear resistance, and chemical resistance to fuels and oils. Glass reinforcement dramatically raises stiffness and heat capability. The main design consideration is moisture absorption, which affects dimensions and properties — heat-stabilized and specialty grades address demanding environments.
