TECHNICAL DATA SHEET: Engineering Plastic Type "CF"
General Notes:
  • PA66/CF30 polyamide 66 reinforced with 30 wt% carbon fiber heat stabilized
  • Very high rigidity, excellent tensile and flexural strength, fatigue and creep resistance
  • Low friction, self lubricating properties, excellent wear and abrasion resistance
  • Good heat capability
  • Good chemical resistance (oils, grease, fuels, non polar solvents); not resistant to strong acids, alkalis and hot water or steam
  • ESD Safe Material, very low surface resistivity
  • Very low coefficient of linear thermal expansion
  • Typical applications include handling and positioning of electronic components and devices, where an optimal balance between stiffness and surface smooth is required
