| Poliamid
Polyamide is a construction material which belongs to the group of thermoplastics. It is characterized with high strength, hardness, tensile strength, low gravity and self-lubricity. The combination of these characteristics makes it an ideal material as the material is used for the implementation of components such as gears, pulleys, baskets, housings, pumps, bearings, sealing rings, steering shafts, and other strips. Available in the form of plates in thickness from 1mm to 200mm, rods in diameter from 6mm to 250mm, and tubes with an outside diameter of 250mm. In case of fire polyamide, it exhibits self-extinguishing. Polyamides are used for recycling.
