Overview
PA66 is the standard grade of the PA66 family in the engineering plastics group. It is used in applications such as radiator tanks, intake manifolds, engine covers, connectors and circuit-breaker parts, sliders, wheels and conveying elements. 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 | 1,14 g/cm³ |
| Melting point | 260 °C |
| Tensile strength | 80–90 MPa |
| Moisture uptake (sat.) | %8–8,5 |
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.
Applications
- Radiator tanks, intake manifolds, engine covers
- Connectors and circuit-breaker parts
- Sliders, wheels and conveying elements
- Cable ducts and fastening elements
Industries: Automotive
