Nylatron® is a tradename for a family of nylon plastics, typically filled with molybdenum disulfide lubricant powder. It is used to cast plastic parts for machines, because of its mechanical properties and wear resistance.
 
Nylatron

Nylatron® GS is molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) filled nylon offering improved strength and rigidity. With a lower coefficient of linear thermal expansion than Nylon 101, Nylatron GS parts maintain better fit and clearances, and have less tendency to seize as bearings.

Nylatron® GSM contains finely divided particles of molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) to enhance its load bearing capabilities while maintaining the impact resistance inherent to nylon. It is the most commonly used grade for gears, sheaves, sprockets and custom parts. It is grey-black in color.

Nylatron® NSM has the best bearing and wear nylon product available today. Proprietary type 6 nylon formulation produced using Quadrant’s Monocast® process. Solid lubricant additives impart self-lubricating, high pressure/velocity and superior wear resistance characteristics. Nylatron NSM was developed specifically for demanding applications where larger size parts are required. It is ideal for bearings, gears and wear pads. In wear applications, Nylatron NSM lasts up to 10 times longer than standard Type 6 nylon.

Applications:

  • Bearings
  • Rollers, Wheels, Wear Components
  • Wear Pads
  • Gears
  • Nozzles

Types of Nylatron

Nylatron GS PA66

Molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) filled nylon offering improved strength and rigidity. With a lower coefficient of linear thermal expansion than Nylon 101, Nylatron GS parts maintain better fit and clearance, and have less tendency to re-size as bearings.

Nylatron GS PA66
Nylatron GSM PA6

Nylatron® GSM PA6 contains finely divided particles of molybdenum dusulphide (MoS2) to enhance its load bearing capabilities while maintaining the impact resistance inherent to nylon. It is most commonly used grade for gears, sheaves, and sprockets.

Nylatron GSM PA6
Nylatron GSM Blue PA6

The first cast nylon to combine both molybdenum disulphid (MoS) and oil for the load capacity of Nylatron GSM PA6, plus improved frictional characteristics. It excels in higher pressures, and at-low speeds up to 40 fpm.

Nylatron GSM Blue PA6
Nylatron NSM

Developed specifically for demanding applications, Nylatron® NSM outperforms all other “premium” wear grade materials by far. Ideal for bearings and wear pads, Nylatron® NSM offers advantages beyond superior wear resistance at an affordable price.

Nylatron NSM
Nylatron Machining & Fabrication

Acetal is a rigid, strong material that is available in copolymer and homopolymer compounds. Its properties include low moisture absorption, good chemical resistance and good dimensional stability

Nylatron MC 907 PA 6

Unmodified type 6 nylon offering the highest strength and hardness of the nylon 6 grades. MC 907 natural is FDA, USDA, and 3A-Dairy compliant. It is off-white and primarily used for food contact parts.

Nylatron MC 907 PA 6
Nylatron 4.6 PA46

Offers superior heat aging and creep resistance and retention of stiffness up to 300° F. It is reddish brown in color and used where PA6, PA66, POM and PET fall short.

Nylatron 4.6 PA46
Nylatron 703XL PA6

This ultra-high performance bearing grade of PA6 provides wear resistance near the levels of Nylatron NSM PA6 with superior load bearing capability and an industry first-a near zero level of “stick slip.”

Nylatron 703XL PA6
Nylatron GF30 PA66

For applications requiring higher compressive strength and rigidity, 30% glass reinforced Nylon 6/6 is also available.

Nylatron GF30 PA66
Nylatron LFG PA6

Nylatron® LFG PA6 takes the performance of Nylatron® LIG PA6 and adds FDA compliance for applications where food contact is possible. Food packaging and processing equipment users can now benefit from the benefits of the material.

Nylatron LFG PA6
Nylatron LIG PA6

Nylatron® LIG combines the toughness of PA6 with an oil-based lubricant that is encapsulated within the nylon matrix. It increases the load bearing performance of the material when compared to unfilled nylons and reduces the coefficient of friction.

Nylatron LIG PA6
Nylatron WP PA6

Developed specifically for wear pads, Nylatron® WP outperforms its competition across a wide range of applications and multiple industries.

Nylatron WP PA6
Nylon 101 PA66

Of all the unmodified nylons, Nylon 101 is the strongest, most rigid and has one of the highest melting points.
