What is LFT PA6?
What is long glass fiber PA6?
Long glass fiber PA6 is a composite material that features long glass fibers embedded in a PA6 (or nylon 6) matrix. The resulting material is known for its strength, stiffness, and durability, making it a popular choice for applications that require high mechanical performance and resistance to wear and impact.
Long glass fiber PA6 is produced by incorporating glass fibers that are several millimeters long into the polyamide matrix during the extrusion process. The length of the fibers allows for improved reinforcement and a higher degree of orientation, resulting in enhanced mechanical properties such as increased stiffness, strength, and impact resistance.
Benefit of LFT compound
------
The high strength of long glass fiber PA6 makes it an ideal candidate for use in automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications. Its ability to withstand high temperatures and exposure to chemicals also makes it a popular choice for applications in harsh environments, such as chemical processing plants and oil rigs.
Long glass fiber PA6 is also known for its excellent dimensional stability, making it a suitable material for applications that require tight tolerances and precise dimensions. The material exhibits low shrinkage and creep, allowing for consistent performance over time.

Outstanding Case Sharing
In 2021, a customer making home appliance parts approached us and said, "The PP-GF material we are using now has insufficient performance, and we need a high-performance material to improve the strength and toughness product performance of washing machine parts."
After evaluating the proposal from our technical department, we suggested the customer to use "LFT-G® PP-NG05-LGF50% mix PP raw resin to make the composite material. After our reasonable technical guidance, the mechanical properties of the washing machine parts made of our LFT-G® PP-NG05-LGF50% material were improved by 30%-40%. The customer's feedback is very satisfied with the use of the results, for the customer in the target country market to obtain a great market advantage. We have exported more than 2,000MT material to our customers, and we are able to provide our customers with continuous and stable supply.
