Detailed Engineering Specifications

Built to exacting engineering tolerances, this 0.488-inch thick Nylon stock sheet measures 17 inches in width and 30 inches in length. Composed of high-molecular-weight Nylon 6, it exhibits excellent tensile strength, impact resistance, and superior abrasion wear characteristics, making it ideal for fabricating high-pressure pneumatic manifold blocks, custom valve bodies, and wear pads in cylinder assemblies. Its inherent lubricity also reduces friction in sliding applications, contributing to system efficiency and extended component life under continuous operational stress.
