Polyamide 66 has good strength, hardness, wear resistance and thermal dimensional stability. In addition, nylon 66 has wear resistance and low friction properties. It also has very good thermal, chemical and impact properties. Users should be aware of PA 66's tendency to absorb moisture which can affect dimensional stability. In fact, PA 66 has a greater tendency to absorb moisture when saturated than type 6 cast PA. This material has been successfully used in various applications from electronics, marine and automotive industries to forestry, construction and mining.
