Nylon 40% Glass Filled Plate
Nylon, 40% Glass Filled
- Description
- Features
- Reviews
A 40% glass-fibre nylon supplied as thick plate for structural machining. The higher glass loading pushes stiffness and heat deflection above the 30% grade, which is the published stock-shape standard, at a further cost in ductility and in abrasiveness to tooling and mating parts. This is a special-order material rather than a stocked line.
Properties are not published for this grade as a machinable stock shape by any manufacturer we could verify, so none are quoted here. Figures come with the mill certificate on the specific lot supplied. If the application is load-bearing or temperature-critical, ask us for the certificate before committing to a design.
