Cast nylon sheet (also known as MC nylon) is produced via an anionic polymerization casting process. With a molecular weight reaching 70,000–100,000, it offers comprehensive mechanical properties far superior to standard extruded nylon sheets. The material combines high strength, exceptional wear resistance, and self-lubricating qualities with excellent dimensional stability and ease of machining. It is widely used for wear-resistant components and structural transmission parts in machinery, making it an ideal substitute for metals like copper and steel. We offer customization services for various specifications and colors, including natural, blue, and black.
Key Features
High Strength and Wear Resistance
With a tensile strength of 80–120 MPa and wear resistance 3–6 times that of carbon steel and 2–3 times that of bronze, it is ideal for high-wear, heavy-load applications.
Superior Performance
Boasts a molecular weight of 70,000–100,000-three times that of standard nylon-offering superior toughness and fatigue resistance compared to extruded nylon sheets.
Dimensional Stability
High crystallinity and low water absorption ensure finished parts resist warping and deformation.
Easy to Process
Suitable for turning, milling, drilling, and planing; the material does not chip or crack during machining, making it ideal for precision components.
Good Temperature Resistance
Suitable for long-term use in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 120°C; reinforced grades offer even higher temperature resistance.
Self-Lubricating
Low coefficient of friction eliminates the need for lubricating oil during operation, ensuring hassle-free, maintenance-free performance.

FAQ
Q: Can your company provide SGS or RoHS test reports for the sheets?
A: Yes. We can assist in arranging third-party testing (SGS, RoHS, REACH, etc.) and provide the corresponding reports upon request; the associated costs are to be borne by the customer.
Q: Is cast nylon sheet suitable for manufacturing large, thin-walled parts?
A: Cast nylon sheet can be used for thin-walled parts; however, when machining large, thin sheets, care must be taken regarding clamping methods and cutting parameters to prevent vibration or deformation. We recommend sharing your specific drawings with us so we can provide tailored machining advice.
