Ertalon 66GF30 belongs to the Ertalon nylon family and is a 30% glass-fibre filled polyamide 66 grade. This reinforcement significantly increases the material's tensile strength and rigidity while maintaining a usable service temperature range from -20°C up to 110°C.

Compared to unreinforced nylon 66, the glass-fibre content provides improved dimensional stability and a lower thermal expansion coefficient of 50 x 10⁻⁶ /K. Dotmar supplies this grade as machinable rod and sheet stock, enabling the production of precision components that require consistent performance under mechanical load and elevated temperatures.

Key Features

  • 30% glass-fibre reinforced nylon 66 for increased strength and rigidity
  • Continuous service temperature range from -20°C to 110°C
  • Tensile strength rated at 85 MPa
  • Low thermal expansion coefficient of 50 x 10⁻⁶ /K
  • Medium chemical resistance suitable for industrial environments
  • Available as machinable rod and sheet stock from Dotmar

Ertalon 66GF30 is typically specified for structural and wear-resistant parts across general engineering, materials handling, and industrial equipment sectors. Common applications include gears, bushings, bearing housings, rollers, and insulators where higher mechanical loads or elevated operating temperatures exceed the capabilities of standard unfilled nylon grades.
