This unique, ultra-high performance bearing grade PA6 offers even better wear resistance than Nylatron™ NSM, exhibiting superior load-bearing capabilities and a near zero level of stick-slip. By eliminating stick-slip, Nylatron™ 703 XL PA6 offers an extraordinary amount of control for high-precision applications where smooth and steady motion is critical. For this reason, Nylatron™ 703 XL PA6 is often favored as a solution for wear pads, conveyor components, corner tracks and pneumatic control surfaces throughout the construction and heavy equipment markets.
