10% PTFE Lubricated PA is a subcategory of Polyamide. The additative is added by weight during the manufacturing process. Its melting temperature ranges from 260 to 265 °C.
Polyamide, also known as PA, is a thermoplastic polycondensate. Common trade names are Ultramid and Zytel. nylon (PA 66) It has high lubricity and moderate strength. It is tough, inexpensive, but has poor dimensional stability due to water absorption (hygroscopic nature). PA is commonly used to make high-lubricity parts such as bearings, blow moldings molds, and clothing fabrics.
