Product Description
This family of nylon 6 compounds, reinforced 15% by weight with glass fiber, offers significantly improved strength and rigidity especially at elevated temperatures, while maintaining good toughness.

For molded parts which may be exposed to high temperatures for prolonged periods of time, one of the heat stabilized grades should be selected. N60G15HSL contains a conventional stabilizer system, which provides excellent protection against thermal aging, but can slightly tint the natural color, normally to a greenish hue. For applications where preservation of natural color is important, especially for precision color matches, the use of N60G15HL, which incorporates an effective stabilizer system free from color effects, is recommended.

Each compound offers the high flow, easy processing and outstanding surface appearance characteristic of nylon 6 resins, and is lubricated for improved feed and mold release.
