50% Glass Fiber Reinforced Nylon 6 (PA6 GF50)

Product Overview

PA6 GF50 is a 50% glass fiber reinforced nylon 6 compound known for its high mechanical strength, stiffness, and impact resistance. It is often used as a metal replacement in applications that demand a balance between durability and weight, including automotive, sports equipment, and machinery parts.

This material maintains excellent dimensional stability and thermal resistance while being more cost-effective than PA66 GF50 in many scenarios.
