Overview
PA6 FR is the flame retardant (UL94 V-0 target) grade of the PA6 family in the compounds group. It is used in applications such as gears, bushings and machine elements, automotive under-bonnet parts and cable ties, power-tool housings. The grade with the right flow for injection, extrusion or another process is specified in the quotation together with your quantity and colour; TDS and SDS are sent with the quotation.
Typical properties
| Property | Typical value |
|---|---|
| Density | 1,18–1,25 g/cm³ |
| Melting point | 220 °C |
| Tensile strength | 60–75 MPa |
| Flammability rating | UL94 V-0 |
Tensile strength is measured to ISO 527, melt flow rate to ISO 1133, heat deflection temperature to ISO 75 (1.8 MPa); flammability class per UL94. Depending on supplier and grade, values can fall outside this range.
