From RS Pro a range of high-quality natural coloured Nylon 66 solid plastic sheets available in a range of sizes and thicknesses
What are Solid Plastic Sheets
Solid plastic sheets are sheets of strong durable plastic or plastic like materials which are cut to size and sold in a wide range of sizes and thickness
These hard plastic sheets, once purchased, can then be cut or machined into components for the fabrication of products for use in a wide range of industries
Different plastics have different properties which lend them for use in specific applications
What is Nylon 66
Nylon 66 is also known as Polyamide 66 or PA 66 and is a semi-crystalline engineering plastic
This plastic is both hard and rigid with good abrasive and wear resistance along with low frictional properties
It also has good thermal dimensional stability which is the degree to which a material maintains its original dimensions when subjected to changes in temperature and humidity
This Nylon 66 plastic also features good slide and wear properties, components made from this solid plastic sheet slide very easily and don 't stick or lock up
This is an essential quality when this material is used in delicate or fine instruments where smooth operation is essential as well as in gears and bearings
