Product Description
Material code according to ISO 1043-1: PA66

Nylon 66 reinforced by 40 weight percent long glass
fibers. The pellets are cylindrical and normally as well as the
embedded fibers 10 mm long.

Parts molded of CELSTRAN have outstanding mechanical properties such
as high strength and stiffness combined with high heat deflection.
The notched impact strength is increased at elevated and low
temperatures due to the fiber skeleton built in the parts. The long
fiber reinforcement reduces creep significantly.

The very isotropic shrinkage in the molded parts minimizes the
warpage.

Complex parts can be manufactured with high reproducibility by
injection molding.

Can be used for substituting die cast metal with the advantage of
Weight reduction, no corrosion problems, no post treatment.
