Nylatron® Machined Parts

Machined Nylatron sample

Meets ASTM D 4066.

Nylatron® is a trade name for a family of nylon plastics, typically filled with molybdenum disulfide lubricant powder. It is used to cast plastic parts for machines, because of its mechanical properties and wear-resistance.

Nylatron® is a brand name of DSM Plastics and was originally developed and manufactured by Polypenco. In recent years, DSM Plastics was acquired by Quadrant Engineering, and Nylatron® is now available in several different grades through Quadrant Engineering.

Nylatron® machining to close tolerances is easily achieved with Vanderveer Industrial Plastics' CNC machining capabilities. Vanderveer stocks and fabricates Nylatron® tubes, rods, and sheets.
