Sustamid® 6 GC natural
PA — PA 6
The PA 6 with cast character
SUSTAMID 6 GC is an extruded PA 6 with a homogeneous structure and enhanced mechanical properties compared to standard SUSTAMID 6. Developed as an alternative to cast nylon, it is especially suited for small, hard-to-cast parts. SUSTAMID 6 GC offers high wear resistance and excellent machinability. Its higher molecular weight makes its properties closer to SUSTAMID 6 G than to the standard grade.
