Raw materials
Polyamide 6.6
Polyamide 6.6 (PA66) is the raw material used to make most SapiSelco products. PA66 is a member of the engineering plastics family. It has high mechanical strength and abrasion resistance, a low friction coefficient and good resistance to solvents and other aggressive reagents.
Out of all the synthetic engineering plastics,
the PA66 polymer has properties that make it the most suitable for injection moulding systems.
To ensure products designed and manufactured by SapiSelco accurately comply with specifications, other polymers such as polypropylene and polyethylene are also used in the production cycles.
