Cast, internally lubricated polyamide 6 is a self-lubricating material for all purposes.

Specifically designed for parts used in dynamic, high load and lube-free  applications (slow movements), this material helps expand the scope of polyamides thanks to its low friction coefficient (reduced up to 50%) and enhanced resistance to wear (up t 10 times greater).
