Material Data Sheet
Material: Nylatron® 703XL
Filled NylonNylatron® 703XL is ultra-high performance bearing grade Nylon with almost unmatched wear resistance and load carrying capacity . Nylatron® 703XL possesses the incredible quality of near-zero "stick-slip", or amount the material sticks on a stopped surface. This characteristic allows for the elimination of chatter and high level of control in high-precision applications.
