PA 6 G SL

PA – Polyamide

PA 6 G SL

PA 6 G SL is a cast polyamide that contains solid lubricants. It features carefully chosen additives that give it unique sliding characteristics and an extremely low coefficient of friction. This material is an ideal choice for applications in which lubricant is required but difficult or impossible to apply. In contrast to PA 6 G + OIL, its lubrication properties are effective immediately. We deliver PA 6 G SL as plastic sheets, rods and hollow rods.
