Click here to buy Nylon 6 Sheet.
Thinner and extruded nylon sheet is available in a range from 0.5mm thick upto 8mm thick and these sheets are generally manufactured at 2000 x 1000 in size. Above 6mm thick, some manufacturers only produce Nylon 6 Sheet at 500mm wide and extrude the overall length of the sheet at 3000mm long. These Nylon 6 Sheets are commonly available in thicknesses ranging from 6mm thick up to around 100mm thick. Both of the above sheets are available in both white colour and also black but the black option does have a slightly reduced size variation option.
The second and very important grade is the cast nylon 6 sheet. This material is generally available in a thickness range from 10mm up to 120mm thick but this grade can be obtained in much thicker alternatives but they may need to be ordered in advance to allow manufacturers production time. Cast nylon 6 sheet is almost always made in an overall sheet size of 2000 x 1000.
The nylon 6 cast sheet does have a greater tolerance on thickness which means that this grade will need to be machined by the customer to the desired thickness or manufacturers will provide a machining service at a nominal cost.
