ZELLAMID® 202

PA 6, natural / black

ZELLAMID® 202 extruded is a tough material with high resistance to abrasion and impact.
PA 6 is commonly used as a substitution material for bronze, aluminium and other
non-ferrous metals, as it has significant weight
advantages.

ZELLAMID® 202 has a specific gravity of 1,15 g/cm3 and bronze has 8,8 g/cm3 making
the comparative volume price very attractive.
Using PA 6 also reduces lubrication requirements and is non-abrasive to mating surfaces.
It features good mechanical properties.
Nylons can absorb up to 8% water (by weight) under humidity or submerged in water.
This increases the excellent shock and vibration resistance but can also lead to dimensional
changes.
Mechanical, electrical and dimensional properties are accordingly influenced by moisture
absorption.

ZELLAMID® 202 is approved for contact with food (BfR and FDA).

ZELLAMID® 202 can also be custom made in various colours.

Quick facts:
Material for general purpose wear and structural parts which need a good balance of
strength and toughness.

Applications:
Pulp and paper industry, offshore and marine, textile, general machine building, food industry,
material handling, electronics, construction, mining, aerospace and many more.

Colours:

On request, ZELLAMID® is also available in black (ZELLAMID® 202 SW) and in individual colours.
