Nylacast Moly is a cast nylon material in which improved
crystallisation occurs by the addition of Molybdenum
Disulphide. On account of this the superficial hardness
increases (providing excellent machine ability) and
simultaneously the general mechanical and anti-friction
properties are improved. Due to the fact that the crystal
structure breaks down immediately before the melting
temperature is reached, the thermal properties of the
material are improved over the basic grade.
MoS2 provides a degree of self lubrication leading to
an improvement in the wear properties of the material.
These improved properties, combined with lower
water absorption, extend the range of applications that
Moly has over Natural cast nylon. Dynamic bearing
applications at elevated operating temperatures of up to
105ºC are particularly suited to this material.
