Product Details
30% glass-filled nylon rods and plates are designed for applications that demand higher compressive strength and rigidity compared to standard unfilled nylon. The incorporation of glass fibers significantly enhances the strength of the nylon, providing improved tensile, compressive, and flexural properties, resulting in 200% better strength than general-purpose nylon. However, the addition of glass also increases abrasiveness, which can lead to wear on mating surfaces. This material offers increased load-bearing characteristics, making it ideal for applications where enhanced stiffness, rigidity, and dimensional stability are critical. It is important to note that while the glass provides stability, it reduces the non-lubricated wear properties of the nylon.
