OSAMIDE

Overpowering all conditions.

PA6 · PA66 · PA6T/6I · PA6/6T

OSAMIDE is our polyamide range: PA6, PA66 and semi-aromatic PA6T/6I compounds with glass fibre up to 70% or carbon fibre up to 50%. They keep their strength in heat and humidity, which is why they replace metal in machine parts, fuel systems and under-hood components.
