Ultramid® A3HG6 WIT

Ultramid® A3HG6 WIT by BASF is a polyamide 66 grade reinforced with 30% glass fiber and glass beads. It possesses good elastic properties, high dimensional stability, high creep strength and excellent sliding friction properties. This grade provides good toughness at low temperatures, hardness, high rigidity, high mechanical strength, stiffness, thermal stability, very good impact strength and good processability. It exhibits outstanding resistance to chemicals, hot lubricants and hot water, fuels, hydraulic fluids and coolants, refrigerants, dyes, paints, cleaners, degreasing agents, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and many other solvents. It is resistant to hydrolysis, corrosion, to aqueous solutions of salts and alkalis and to stress-crack formation compared to many amorphous plastics. Ultramid® A3HG6 WIT is processed by water injection molding. It is used for applications in automotive cooling circuit such as cooling water pipes.
