Cast Nylon Sheets

Cast nylon sheets are produced through a casting process, resulting in a versatile material with a range of desirable properties. These sheets are composed of polyamide polymers, and the casting method allows for the creation of large, uniform sheets with consistent mechanical and thermal characteristics.

Special charecteristics:-

  • High Mechanical Strength
  • Wear and Abrasion Resistance
  • Low Coefficient of Friction
  • Chemical Resilience
  • Dimensional Stability
  • Low Moisture Absorption
  • Noise and Vibration Dampening
  • Versatile Applications
