Polyamide 6 Natural

Polyamide nylon 6 is the most commonly used nylon and this material has combined and balanced all typical properties of polyamide. Nylon 6 has great impact resistance, good damping property, and high toughness. These properties are still active even under low working temperature conditions. Meanwhile, the material still has good strength, great wear properties, good chemical resistance, and is resistant to many oil and greases.
