DRYING TEMPERATURE:
140-160 °F (60-71°C) for 2-4 hours, Nylene® PA6 should be dried to less than 0.15% moisture for optimum performance. Drying longer than 4 hours or at higher temperatures may cause oxidation of the polymer or remove essential volatiles.

Products

Nylene BX3WQ662X-01

Nylene® BX3WQ662X-01 is a medium viscosity, heat stabilized, nylon 6 universal wire jacketing resin offering excellent performance through the range of THHN, THWN, and TFFN constructions. Meets the requirements of UL 83 for wire jacketing. This product possesses higher extractables for a balance of performance properties. Shields PVC from impact, damage and general deterioration. Improves the temperature rating of the wire, has good cut through resistance, and high resistance to abrasion. Heat Stabilized for continuous use temperature to 250F (121C). Dried to less than 0.15% moisture, with packaging options of 1,800 lb. gaylord boxes or 55 lb. foil-lined, vacuum sealed bags.
