Nylene Resins for Optimal Tool Performance

Nylene’s product line includes modified nylon 6 resins with very good physical properties and excellent extrusion characteristics.  We also offer high-viscosity nylon co-polymer with high impact resistance, and optimized resins with good melt strength for high-line speeds in thin wall sections.

Our specialized nylon formulations for the tubing industry offer a wide array of benefits:

  • Superior Chemical Resistance: Our nylon resins exhibit excellent resistance to alkalies, oils, greases, and petroleum products. This ensures longevity and reliability, even in environments with challenging substances.
  • Water-Resistant and Durable: Unlike some materials that become brittle or swell when exposed to water, our nylon formulations remain stable. This guarantees continued performance, even in wet or humid conditions.
  • Fatigue and Vibration Resistant: The exceptional properties of our resins make them resistant to fatigue, tube vibration, and movement. This makes them perfect for applications where stability is paramount.
  • Lightweight and Flexible: Our resins are designed to be lightweight without compromising on performance. They boast excellent bend and radii capabilities, allowing for smooth and adaptable installations.
  • Crush, Abrasion, and Crack Resistance: Industries requiring materials that can withstand tough conditions can rely on our resins. They exhibit remarkable resistance to crushing, abrasion, and cracking, ensuring longevity even in demanding environments.
