Product Description
Unreinforced polyamide 66, high fluidity, fast cycling grade, for injection moulding.

TECHNYL® A 206K offers three main advantages: excellent filling qualities, good ductility at low temperature and is V2 rated under 0.8 mm according to UL94. It is particularly suitable for the moulding of long parts with thin wall sections, such as:
  • Cable ties and fasteners
  • Connectors.
