Ultramid® A3WG6 HRX

Ultramid® A3WG6 HRX by BASF is a polyamide 66 grade reinforced with 30% glass fiber. It 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 possesses good elastic properties, high dimensional stability, high creep strength and excellent sliding friction properties. It is resistant to hydrolysis, heat aging, and corrosion, to aqueous solutions of salts and alkalis and to stress-crack formation compared to many amorphous plastics. Ultramid® A3WG6 HRX is processed by injection molding. It is used for applications in the automotive cooling circuit.
