NYCAST CP 6/12

Discover the NYCAST Advantage NYCAST CP 612 Highly resilient with higher tensile elongation and impact strength than standard grades NYCAST CP has proven itself in many applications requiring an extra degree of toughness. A copolymer of caprolactam and laurinlactam NYCAST CP was originally developed specifically for use in ball valve seats in the oil and gas industry. This durable material provides an economical high performance bridge between NYCAST 6 and NYCAST 12 formulations. NYCAST CP with its higher elongation superior dimensional stability and safety yellow color has found itself a superior choice for wobbler box inserts and coupling boxes in the cold rolling steel industry as well as mandrel covers used in paper tube manufacturing plants. High impact resistance High tensile elongation Reduced water absorption Lower hardness Easy to machine NYCAST CP 612 Product Specifications Property Units ASTM Test Method NYCAST CP 612 Specific Gravity gcm D 792 1.10 - 1.13 Tensile Strength psi D 638 9000 - 11000 Tensile Elongation D 638 25 - 40 Tensile Modulus psi D 638 375000 - 475000 Compressive Strength psi D 695 12000 - 14000 Compressive Modulus psi D 695 275000 - 375000 Flexural Strength psi D 790 13000 - 16000 Flexural Modulus psi D 790 325000 - 475000 Shear Strength psi D 732 7500 - 9000 Notched Izod Impact ft.lbsin.
