       Types: 
     | 
     
       Nylon 6SA - General 
        purpose grade, available in natural (cream) (thinner sheet &rod) and 
        black (rod only). 
        Nylon 66SA - Higher mechanical properties & dimensional stability. 
        Available in natural (cream) in smaller rod sizes.  
        Nylon 6PLA - Cast nylon grade similar to 6SA. Available in natural 
        (cream) in sheet plus larger rod & tube sizes. 
        Nylon 4/6 - Superior thermal resistance. Red/brown colour. Available 
        in limited rod & sheet sizes. 
        Nylon GF30 - 30% glass fibre filled to give improved strength, 
        stiffness, creep resistance, dimensional stability & thermal resistance. 
        Black rod only. 
        Nylon 6XAU - Heat stabilised cast nylon with better creep, wear 
        & thermal resistance. Black colour; available in sheet plus larger 
        rod & tube sizes. 
        Nylon LFX - Self lubricating grade with low co-efficient of friction 
        and exceptional wear resistance. Green colour; available in sheet plus 
        larger rod & tube sizes.
