Nylon Max – PA6MG

Overview

Kormax Nylon Max is a modified nylon that has embedded molybdenum disulfide lubricant (MoS2). It enhances the nylon’s load-bearing and wear capabilities. Kormax Nylon Max has excellent impact strength, toughness, wear resistance and can stand sustained contact with a wide variety of chemicals. Kormax Nylon Max has a low coefficient of friction, is self-lubricating and is a high-performing alternative to Kormax Nylon.

Nylon PA6

Kormax Nylon [technical name Polyamide] is one of the most widely used engineering plastic materials due to its excellent wear and bearing properties. Due to the way nylon shapes are manufactured, a vast array of shapes, sizes and grades are available. Kormax Nylons are frequently used to replace metals and other materials and can be a cost effective alternative. Kormax Nylons have extremely good wear resistance, high tensile strength, high impact resistance and good chemical resistance against many harsh chemicals. Compared to some metals, nylon can be up to 80% lighter.

Nylon PA6G

Kormax Nylon G is modified nylon that has the addition of oil to reduce friction, enhance its wear capabilities, and pressure velocity ratio. Kormax Nylon G has excellent impact strength, toughness wear resistance, and can withstand sustained contact with a wide variety of chemicals. Kormax Nylon G has good load-bearing properties, low coefficient of friction and is self-lubricating. It is available in a wide range of sizes including rods, sheets, tubes, and can be easily machined.
