BASF Ultramid® BU50I PA6 (Dry)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 6 (PA6); Nylon 6, Unreinforced
Material Notes:	Description: Ultramid Ultratough Nylon BU50I is an unreinforced PA6, impact modified injection molding product that maintains its impact strength and ductility to -40 deg F (-40 deg C). The extreme low temperature tolerance of Ultratough Nylon BU50I makes it ideal for applications in which the weld line impact strength at low temperatures is critical. Applications: Automotive components, small engines, power tool parts and casings, cold weather and high impact supports gear, such as snowboards, ski components, helmets and hockey masks.
