Two of the most widely used cast nylons in the industry, NYCAST XHA BLUE and NYCAST 6PA NATURAL have delivered successful performance - with and without lubrication - in a variety of diverse applications, particularly as a bearing material. They are lightweight, offer extremely good wear resistance, high tensile strength and high modulus of elasticity.
Other significant properties include:
- High impact resistance
- Excellent vibration resistance
- Resistance to brittleness and deterioration
- Easy machinability and abrasion resistance
- High heat distortion temperature
HEAT STABILIZATION PROPERTIES
NYCAST® XHA-BLUE has a heat stabilizer that retards the loss of physical properties as temperature increases. This allows the material to function at approximately 10% higher temperatures than standard grades; meaning NYCAST XHA operating at 200° F will have approximately the same physical properties as a standard grade operating at 185° F.
Maximum intermittent temperature for NYCAST XHA is 330° F and continuous operating temperature is 250° F (compared to 230° F for standard grades).
NYCAST® 6PA MoS2
NYCAST 6PA-MoS2 is a popular choice as a dry lubricant-filled bearing material. Manufactured to be a more crystalline product with improved wear resistance, NYCAST 6PA-MoS2 also offers improved compressive strength.
