Nylon 6 rod is a versatile engineering plastic known for its high tensile strength, stiffness and excellent machinability. It offers moderate chemical resistance, electrical insulation, and reliable heat performance, making it ideal for a variety of engineering applications.
As a leading plastic rod supplier, PAR Group offers a wide range of Nylon 6 rods, including standard grades for general machining, cast rods with enhanced strength and lower moisture absorption, and extruded rods for tighter tolerances and thinner thicknesses. Specially engineered grades, such as metal detectable and flame retardant options, are also available for specific industrial uses.
For more information and availability on each grade, please follow the links below or click the ‘Buy Online’ button above.
Popular engineering plastic rod that is strong, tough, and provides good resistance to oils and chemicals. Used for machining into bushings, spacers, rollers, and other components across a range of industries. Temperature range of -40°C up to +110°C.
A strong, rigid rod with excellent sliding, wear, and chemical resistance. It is easily machined, electrically insulating, and has good heat ageing properties. Used for wheels, gears, scrapers, roller and wear components. Temperature range of -40°C up to +100°C.
High strength, stiffness and hardness with excellent creep and wear resistance. It is resistant to oils, chemicals, and cleaning fluids. Often machined into OEM wear components. Temperature range of -40°C up to +100°C.
Easily machinable. Offers enhanced lubrication, reducing friction up to 50% and boosting wear resistance by up to x10 compared to standard nylon 6 rod. Used for unlubricated, highly loaded, and slow-moving parts. Temperature range of -40°C up to +110°C.
Up to 10 times increased wear resistance and up to 50% reduced friction compared to standard nylon 6 rod. Internally lubricated for enhanced performance. Ideal for unlubricated, highly loaded, and slow-moving parts. Temperature range of -40°C up to 105°C.
Enhanced load bearing and wear resistance. Offers improved mechanical strength, hardness, toughness, self-lubrication, electrical insulation, fatigue, and wear resistance machining components. Temperature range of -40°C up to +110°C.
Good machinability, high strength, stiffness, and hardness with excellent wear resistance. Good electrical insulation and chemical resistance. FDA approved. Used for rollers, wheels, gears and more. Temperature range of -40°C up to +85°C.
Superior load bearing and wear resistance than standard grades. High impact and fatigue resistance as well as good mechanical strength, hardness and toughness. Used for gears, sheaves and sprockets. Temperature range of -40°C up to +85°C.
High strength, stiffness and machinability. Blue in colour, contains fine additives visible to metal detecting and x-ray scanning equipment. Used in food and pharmaceutical applications. Temperature range of -20°C up to +80°C.
Flame retardant whilst maintaining mechanical properties of standard nylon 6 rod. Compliant with EU rail vehicle standards and UL94-V0 rated. Low density to provide weight advantages. Temperature range of -20°C up to +85°C (+160°C short term).
