Nylon 6 MOS2 Cast - NYLATRON GSM
NYLATRON GSM contains finely divided particles of molybdenum disulphide to enhance its bearing and wear behaviour without impairing the impact and fatigue resistance inherent to unmodified cast nylon grades. It is a very commonly used grades for gears, bearings, sprockets and sheaves.
Profile
- High mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and toughness
- Excellent resilience
- Good creep resistance
- High impact strength, even at low temperatures
- Very good dimensional stability (low water absorption)
- Good sliding properties and wear resistance
- Excellent machinability
- Good electrical insulating and dielectric properties
- Physiologically inert (suitable for food contact)
- Not self-extinguishing
Applications
- Bearings
- NYLATRON NSM nylon offers up to 10 times longer part life than standard type 6 nylon in this Pivot Bushing on a Mining Dump Truck.
- Rollers, Wheels, Wear Components
- Nylon offers better wear resistance, compressive strength and fatigue resistance than other materials in a variety of wear applications.
- Wear pads
- Wear Pads made of NYLATRON NSM nylon are light weight, able to support heavy loads and are non-abrasive to mating surfaces.
- Gears
- Gears made of NYLATRON NSM nylon run more quietly and wear longer without the need for lubrication on processing equipment.
- Nozzle
- Nylatron MC 901 is custom cast to size saving fabrication time and money in this Port Cap and Diffuser Nozzle application. It only weighs a fraction of the former components making the parts easier to handle and install.
