Cast polyamide 6 containing finely dispersed particles of molybdenum disulfide that enhance the material resistance to wear and its sliding properties in dynamic applications, without reducing its resistance to fatigue and impact strength (typical of non-modified cast polyamides 6).

It is commonly used for the manufacture of bushings, gears, pinions, and pulleys.
