Since its introduction in 1938, Nylon has become one of the world’s most widely recognized and utilized engineering grade thermoplastics. Nylon’s unique combination of high strength, good toughness, outstanding chemical resistance, and excellent wear and abrasion resistance have made it the material of choice for product designs in a multitude of industries. When used to replace wear grade metals like brass and bronze, no other material provides the combination of extended wear life, light weight, and low fabricated part cost of Nylon. Polymer Industries manufactures MECHETEC® Nylon stock shapes in a wide variety of types and stock shape configurations including glass filled and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 or moly) filled options. Formally known as Unipa Nylon. For more Info : Click Here
