Nylon Rod - White 16mm (0.63") Diameter x 300mm (11.81") Long, Grade PA6

A 16mm (0.63") diameter white Grade PA6 nylon rod cut to 300mm (11.81") long. Nylon 6 (PA6) is one of the most widely used engineering plastics, valued for its excellent wear resistance, high strength, and outstanding versatility across mechanical and industrial applications. It is available in both extruded and cast forms — this rod is extruded for consistent dimensional accuracy.

Key Properties

• High tensile strength and rigidity — excellent load-bearing performance
• Outstanding wear resistance — ideal for pulleys, bearings, rollers, and gears
• High chemical resistance — resistant to oils, fuels, and many solvents
• Low coefficient of friction — self-lubricating surface
• Low moisture absorption compared to PA66 — good dimensional stability
• Easy to machine — produces a clean finish on lathes and CNC machines
• Service temperature: up to 90°C continuous

Typical Applications

• Pulleys, bearings, rollers, and gears
• Bushings, wear pads, and slideways
• Pump parts and valve components
• General precision machining and fabrication
