Nycast Nyloil-FG

Generic Family: Polyamide 6Supplied by: Cast Nylons Ltd.
Only NYLOIL from Cast Nylon Limited offers various grades of self-lubricating Nylon bearing material tailored to meet your specific application. A cast nylon with built-in oil lubrication, NYLOIL provides superior machinability, performance, and durability compared to other plastic and traditional bearing materials. These grades of NYLOIL are available to fit the most demanding applications: original green NYLOIL for most bearing applications; food-grade, Natural NYLOIL-FG for direct contact with food.

The incorporation of an oil lubricant package into the nylon matrix provides significant advantages over other bearing materials:

Lubrication results in 25% lower coefficient of friction than other grades of nylon. It performs in harsh environments where lubrication is difficult, impossible or not desirable (food contact):

  • Works successfully in marine applications.
  • Reduced water absorption promotes higher dimensional stability.
  • Works and machines as easily as brass.
  • Oil will not spin out, dry out, or drain out, even under the harshest operating conditions.
  • During NYLOIL's manufacturing process, an oil lubricant package is completely dispersed within the cast nylon matrix, making it an integral part of the casting's structure.
