A plain-English breakdown of every nylon grade we stock — what it is, when to choose it and where it's typically used. Tap the ? on any grade to ask our team a question or request something specific.
The tough, versatile all-rounder. Easier to process than PA66, with excellent impact strength and wear resistance and a good surface finish.
The higher-heat, stiffer option. A higher melting point and greater rigidity make it the first choice for demanding under-bonnet and mechanical parts.
Ten grades from Aquafil, Domo and Poliblend — unfilled, glass-fibre, glass-bead, food-contact, recycled and powder.
A tougher, higher-melt-strength unfilled PA6 for thick sections and hard-wearing parts.
The workhorse PA6 — a balanced, easy-processing grade for everyday engineering parts.
Glass-reinforced for much higher stiffness, strength and heat resistance than unfilled PA6.
Glass beads instead of fibres — even shrinkage and minimal warping for tight-tolerance parts.
Near-metal stiffness with food-contact certification for regulated applications.
High-stiffness performance on a recycled base — a lower-cost, lower-footprint option.
Standard unfilled PA6 pre-coloured black for a cosmetic finish straight off the mould.
Unfilled PA6 formulated for direct or indirect food contact.
Fine PA6 powder for coating and rotational moulding rather than injection moulding.
Lower-viscosity PA6 powder that flows and fuses faster for shorter cycle times.
Four grades from Poliblend and Domo — unfilled, glass-filled, impact-modified and industrial.
Standard unfilled PA66 — stiffer and more heat-resistant than unfilled PA6.
The mainstay structural nylon — holds strength and dimension at elevated temperatures.
Toughened PA66 that survives knocks, drops and cold weather better than standard grades.
A heat- and mechanically-stabilised PA66 built for demanding duty rather than looks.
