For applications needing greater stiffness and compressive strength than conventional unfilled Nylon. The inclusion of glass fibers greatly strengthens nylon. The extra glass adds stability and rigidity, but it also reduces non-lubricated wear characteristics. Although 30% glass filled nylon is 200 percent stronger than ordinary purpose nylon, it is extremely abrasive and will abrade or gall mating surfaces. 30 percent Glass-Filled Nylon has better load bearing capabilities over unfilled Nylon, with improved tensile, compressive, and flexural properties. It is the material of choice in applications requiring greater stiffness, rigidity, and dimensional stability.
