Zytel® PA
Zytel® nylon is the most versatile of nylons - easy to process; easy to modify to meet specific needs, environmentally responsible in production and in reuse. It's tough, light and surprisingly resilient in hot, chemically aggressive and humid environments.
Today, Zytel® nylon resins are used to make reliable, high-performance and cost-effective components and systems that touch everyone's life. Tomorrow, who knows?
