Advanced Laser Materials (ALM) PA 606 FR

Advanced Laser Materials (ALM) PA 606 FR is a only commercially available fire retardant nylon 12 material, which meets FAR 25.853 60 second burn specification. The parts produced from PA 606-FR have a much smoother surface finish and sharper feature detail when compared to FR-106. The PA 606-FR will have both mechanical and physical property characteristics similar to PA 650.
