TECAMID® 66 CAL natural

Calendered unfilled nylon 66

TECAMID 66 CAL natural is an unfilled nylon 66 material that is processed into thin nylon sheets and rolls by means of calendering. These nylon sheets are highly versatile and are often used as nylon sheet material for a variety of applications. The material shares similar properties with TECAMID 66 natural. TECAMID 66 CAL natural is also processed into custom nylon washers, including large diameter nylon washers making it an excellent choice for precision components.  For customers who need nylon plastic sheets immediately available, we have a wide range of nylon sheet stock. Additionally, TECAMID 66 CAL natural is supplied in nylon strips, making it ideal for custom-cut applications. Whether you need nylon 6 6 sheets for engineering projects or polyamide washers for mechanical uses, TECAMID 66 CAL natural is available as a custom order to meet your specific needs.
