30% Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide PA66 — Examid® PA66 GF30 Y

Description

Examid® PA66 GF30 Y is an injection-molding grade of polyamide 66 reinforced with 30% glass fiber, supplied in natural color (Y — Yellowish/Natural). A workhorse structural compound for load-bearing molded parts: high stiffness (flexural modulus of 8800 MPa), tensile strength of 180 MPa and excellent dimensional stability.

Compared to PA6 GF30, it offers a higher melting point (260 vs 220 °C) and an HDT of 245 °C at 1.80 MPa, providing a performance margin in the 120–150 °C range where glass-filled PA6 already loses stiffness. The typical choice for under-hood applications and structural components where PA6 GF30 falls short on heat resistance.

The natural color allows masterbatch coloring to any target shade or downstream painting. MFR of 31 g/10 min (275 °C, 5 kg) ensures reliable filling of medium-complexity molds at standard PA66 GF30 processing conditions.

A direct match in composition and property profile to Ultramid® A3WG6 — with comparable mechanics, Examid® delivers a cost advantage in volume procurement.

Glass-filled PA66 for structural parts with service temperatures up to 150 °C
Applications: structural housings and covers, brackets and supports, load-bearing technical components, dimensionally stable molded parts, high-stiffness elements for elevated temperatures, parts intended for downstream coloring or painting.

FAQ

How does Examid® PA66 GF30 Y differ from glass-filled PA6 GF30?

Higher melting point (260 vs 220 °C), HDT of 245 °C vs ~200 °C, better stiffness retention at 120–150 °C. PA6 GF30 wins on price and processability but falls short on heat resistance.

Can the material be colored?

Yes, the natural color (Y) is designed for masterbatch coloring to any target shade and downstream painting.

Which Ultramid® grade does it replace?

Matches Ultramid® A3WG6 (PA66 GF30) in composition and property profile.
