PA6G MoS₂ is a cast polyamide (PA6G) modified with the addition of molybdenum disulphide (MoS₂), which enhances its mechanical and tribological properties. The MoS₂ additive increases hardness, reduces friction, and improves wear resistance without significantly affecting the material’s toughness.
Thanks to the combination of excellent mechanical properties, good dimensional stability, and reduced friction, PA6G MoS₂ is an ideal choice for technical components operating under high mechanical loads and friction conditions.
