Cast Nylons Nycast® CP Caprolactam/Laurinlactum Copolymer Cast Nylon
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA)
Material Notes:	Highly resilient, with higher tensile elongation and impact strength than standard grades, NYCAST® CP is used applications requiring an extra degree of toughness. A copolymer of caprolactam and laurinlactam, NYCAST® CP was originally developed specifically for use in ball valve seats in the oil and gas industry. NYCAST®CP with its higher elongation, superior dimensional stability and safety yellow color has found itself a superior choice for wobbler box inserts and coupling boxes in the cold rolling steel industry and mandrels covers in paper tube manufacturing plants.
