Usa Industrials BULK-PS-NYL-852 Nylon 6/6 Plastic Bar

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-NYL-852 is a solid Nylon 6/6 plastic bar stock cut to 48 inches in length with a square cross-section measuring 0.5 inches thick by 0.5 inches wide. Nylon 6/6 is a high-strength engineering thermoplastic valued for its wear resistance, low friction coefficient, and ability to machine cleanly with standard shop tools. This bar ships in natural (uncolored) finish and is suited for fabrication of bushings, guides, spacers, wear pads, and structural inserts across mechanical, industrial, and trade service applications. Licensed trades and machine shops use this stock for custom-cut replacement parts and MRO fabrication.

This bar stock is used in light industrial, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical panel fabrication environments where a non-metallic, machinable material is required. Common applications include fabricating standoffs, slide pads, bearing surfaces, and vibration isolators. The natural Nylon 6/6 grade accepts drilling, milling, turning, and tapping without special tooling, making it practical for both job-shop and field-fabrication use cases. It is suitable for dry or mildly lubricated environments and performs across a broad service temperature range.

Key Features

• Nylon 6/6 material provides high tensile strength and excellent abrasion resistance
• Square bar profile at 0.5 inches by 0.5 inches allows consistent machining on all faces
• 48-inch length provides ample stock for multiple cut-to-length parts per bar
• Natural color finish - uncoated and ready for secondary operations or surface treatment
• Machines cleanly with standard drill press, lathe, mill, or hand tools
• Non-conductive and corrosion-resistant - suitable for electrical isolation and wet environments

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose engineering bar stock for fabrication and replacement-part applications requiring a machinable, non-metallic square bar in Nylon 6/6 grade.

Installation Notes

Cut to length using a fine-tooth saw blade or band saw to minimize material chipping at cut edges. Deburr all machined surfaces before assembly. Nylon 6/6 is hygroscopic and may absorb ambient moisture over time, which can affect dimensional tolerance in precision fits - store in a sealed bag or dry environment when not in use. No special codes govern raw bar stock fabrication, but finished assemblies incorporating this material should comply with applicable mechanical or electrical codes for the end-use system.
