Nylon 6 sheet is a widely used engineering plastic with high tensile strength, stiffness, and mechanical properties. It has moderate chemical resistance, is electrically insulating, and performs well when exposed to heat for extended periods. Because of its general versatility and ease of machining, Nylon 6 is used in a wide range of engineering applications.

We have been supplying nylon 6 sheet for over the years at Petron Thermoplast and offer a wide range of grades to meet specific industrial requirements. We offer a variety of nylon 6 grades, including standard engineering grades for general purpose machining, cast oil-filled grades with a lower coefficient of friction and improved wear resistance, and cast moly filled grades with higher load-bearing properties.

Cast Nylon 6 sheet is easier to machine than extruded grades and generally offers improved strength, a higher operating temperature, and lower moisture absorption. Petron Thermoplast also offers extruded alternatives, commonly used when tighter tolerances or a thinner sheet thickness are required.

We also offer extruded metal detectable nylon 6, primarily used in food and pharmaceutical processing operations, and flame retardant grades under UL94 V-0 commonly machined into components for use in aviation and rail industries cable holders clamps, and channels.

Many grades of nylon 6 sheet can be purchased online. In addition, we offer cast nylon 6 rod, cast nylon 6 tube, and bespoke cast nylon shapes.
