Nylon CNC Machining
Machined nylon parts have well-rounded mechanical properties and good wear resistance
Nylon is a go-to material choice for mechanical components that will experience wear and friction. It can even be used as a metal replacement in some instances.
We offer multiple nylons through our CNC machining service:
- Nylon PA6 Natural
- Nylon PA6 Black
- Nylon PA6 GF 30% Glass Filled Black
- Nylon PA 6 (Flame Retardant) White
- Nylon PA 66 Natural
- Nylon PA 66 30% Glass Filled Black
