Ensinger Tecamid® GF30 Extruded Nylon 6/6 30% glass-fiber-reinforced (PA66)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 66 (PA66); Nylon 66, 30% Glass Fiber Filled

Material Notes: Tecamid® 6/6 GF30 is a 30% glass-fiber reinforced nylon 6/6 material whose important properties include high tensile and flexural strength, stiffness, excellent heat deflection temperature, and superior abrasion and wear resistance. While all Tecamid® materials have high mechanical strength and superior resistance to wear and organic chemicals, Tecamid® 6/6 GF30 has more than double the strength and stiffness of unreinforced nylons and a heat deflection temperature which approaches its melting point.
  • Superior organic chemical resistance
  • High heat deflection temperature
  • Excellent wear resistance
  • High strength and stiffness
  • Very good fatigue endurance
  • Superior creep resistance

Tecamid® 6/6 GF30 has an excellent balance of properties which make it an ideal material for metal replacement in applications such as automotive parts, industrial valves, railway tie insulators, and other industry uses whose design requirements include high strength, toughness, and weight reduction.
