TECAST® L black

PA 6 C oil filled black

REQUEST FURTHER PROCESSING OPTIONS

This cast nylon polyamide has been modified with oil for improved sliding and coefficient of friction properties. It has excellent wear and abrasion resistance, resulting in extended component life and lower maintenance cost. Due to its black color, TECAST L black is specially suited for outdoor exposure to weather and UV radiation.
