PA6 GF30 is a modified version of the classic polyamide 6 (PA6), reinforced with 30% glass fibres. This reinforcement significantly improves the mechanical and thermal properties of the base material, making it highly suitable for demanding and technical applications.
Main properties:
High mechanical strength and rigidity due to glass fibre reinforcement
Excellent dimensional stability
Enhanced thermal resistance (up to approx. 120–130 °C continuous temperature)
Reduced moisture absorption compared to standard PA6
Good chemical resistance (oils, greases, fuels)
Reduced impact toughness (due to material rigidity)
Typical applications:
Housings and structural parts in the automotive industry
Load-bearing components in mechanical engineering
Sliders, guides, bearing bushes
Gears and pulleys, where additional rigidity is required
Insulating parts in the electrical and electronic industry, where high insulation is not required
Standards and designations:
Standards:
– DIN EN ISO 1874
– ISO 1043 (material designation: PA6-GF30)
