Nylatron® GS Nylon

Nylatron® GS Nylon is a molybdenum disulphide-filled nylon (MoS2) offering improved strength and rigidity.

Nylatron® GSM

Nylatron® GSM contains finely divided particles of molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) to enhance its load-bearing capabilities while maintaining the impact resistance inherent to nylon. It is the most commonly used grade for gears, sheaves, sprockets, and custom parts. It is gray-black in color.
