40% Glass Fiber and Mineral Filled Nylon 6 (PA6-(GF+MD)40)

Product Overview

40% Glass Fiber and Mineral Filled Nylon 6 (PA6-(GF+MD)40) offers enhanced mechanical strength and thermal performance by combining high glass fiber content with mineral fillers. This compound excels in stiffness, dimensional stability, and creep resistance, making it an excellent choice for demanding structural applications.

The 40% glass fiber and mineral filler combination improves heat deflection temperature, reduces shrinkage, and enhances surface appearance. With reduced moisture absorption compared to unreinforced nylon, it ensures consistent performance in humid and high-stress environments.
