PA612 is a premium preferred base resin for abrasive filaments. It features ultra-low water absorption, excellent elastic recovery, heat and hydrolysis resistance, as well as good wear resistance and abrasive particle adhesion. It is ideal for high-service-life, high-precision dry & wet industrial polishing and deburring applications.
1. Core Advantages (vs PA6 / PA66 / PA610)lowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Ultra-low water absorption (0.6%–0.7%)lowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Far lower than PA66 (~2.8%). Hardness, modulus and grinding force remain stable under dry/wet conditions; no softening, particle shedding or deformation; outstanding dimensional stability.lowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Superior elastic recoverylowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
High toughness and fatigue resistance. Resists permanent deformation and breakage under high-speed rotating and reciprocating operation, perfect for heavy-duty brush rollers and disc brushes.lowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Thermal stability & temperature resistancelowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Melting point approx. 220 °C, continuous service temperature -40 ℃ ~ 105 ℃. Resists softening and sticking under grinding heat, preventing abrasive detachment. Outperforms PA6 and PA66.lowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Wear & aging resistancelowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Long carbon chain structure delivers excellent abrasion resistance; industrial service life is 2–3 times longer than PA66. Good UV, acid, alkali and salt spray resistance for harsh working environments.lowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
Abrasive compatibility & processabilitylowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
High melt strength, excellent compatibility and dispersion with silicon carbide, alumina and diamond abrasives. Stable extrusion and drawing; abrasive loading capacity reaches 15%–30% (5%–15% for diamond).lowANIXT NYLON China Manufacturer
