PA6.6 – Polyamide 6.6 PA66 GF50
AKROMID® A3 GF 50 6 ECO black (8162)
AKROMID® A3 GF 50 6 ECO black (8162) is a 50% glass fibre reinforced, inorganic high temperature stabilised polyamide 6.6 with very high stiffness and strength. The material is lasermarkable. The formulations of the sustainable ECO products are partly based on regenerated postindustrial feedstock saving valuable natural resources
Typical applications
Components in mechanical engineering and in the automotive industry.
Processing information
The listed values are recommendations. Higher values should be used for higher glass loadings. We recommend only de-humidifying or vacuum dryers. Extensive drying can cause filling problems and surface defects.
