Our aluminum flake filled Nylon 12 creates a product characterized by high stiffness and a somewhat metallic (silver color) appearance. This material provides superior dimensional accuracy, good thermal conductivity, easy post processing via machining, grinding, milling. Our secondary polishing processes can provide a surface with a somewhat metallic-looking finish. The aluminum powder creates a product that is somewhat brittle, so this material is not recommended for structural applications. This product should not be used in any application where contact with foodstuffs would be possible.
