Ertalon® and Nylatron® are a range of high-performance nylon materials with high toughness, a low coefficient of friction, and excellent wear resistance. These properties make them the industry standard for use in bearing and wear applications, and ideal replacements for materials ranging from bronze to rubber. Our comprehensive range of semi-crystaline polyamide materials includes special formulations for demanding applications requiring extremely low wear rates, near zero stick-slip, internal lubrication, long-term thermal stability, and high pressure velocity.
Nylatron® MC 901 PA6 shapes are ideal for a variety of bearing and structural applications. Distinguishable by its blue color, this grade is characterized by outstanding mechanical strength, rigidity, hardness, and toughness. The material also exhibits great sliding properties, excellent electrical insulation properties, and outstanding wear resistance. Due to these characteristics and properties, Nylatron® MC 901 PA6 is often favored as a solution for gear wheels, racks, pinions and custom parts.
