Polyamide is characterised by an optimal combination of mechanical strength, rigidness, vibration dampening capacity, and abrasion resistance. Polyamide is also distinguished by its good chemical resistance, thus being a ‘general use’ plastic. It is also used in the production of conveyor belts with the following properties:
- electrical insulation
- melting point: 215°C
- good friction resistance
- good sliding properties
- high mechanical strength
- moisture absorption – approx. 0.3 %/24h
- good resistance to oil, grease and fuel
- operating / long-term temperature: 110°C
- operating / short-term temperature: 170°C
Designed for handling applications where the above properties are demanded.
