- Good combination of mechanical and chemical characteristics. Wear- and creep resistant
- Great durability
- Can be steam sterilized
- Resistant to aliphatic, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons, esters, ketones, alcohols and most bases (alkali)
- For increased stiffness and tensile strength, PA6 + fiberglass is an option
- Max operation temperature +80°C
- Suitable with food
| - All types of polyamides absorb or emit moisture
- Attacked by strong mineral acids and acetic acid
- UV make the polyamides frangible over time
- The moisture level affect the tensile strength, stiffness, creep resistance, impact strength and dimension
- The linear expansion varies with temperature and moisture
