The Performance Upgrade: From Short Fiber to LFT-G® PA6-LGF40

Long Glass Fiber vs Short Glass Fiber

A clear comparison showing why LFT-G® PA6-LGF40 outperforms standard short fiber reinforced nylon

Superior Performance

LFT-G® PA6-LGF40

Long Glass Fiber Reinforced Nylon 6

Continuous Long Fibers

 Exceptional Impact Resistance: Withstands sudden shocks without cracking

 Minimal Creep: Maintains shape under continuous load

 Superior Dimensional Stability: Less warpage, tighter tolerances

 Excellent Fatigue Resistance: Performs through repeated stress cycles

Standard

 PA6-GF40

Short Glass Fiber Reinforced Nylon 6

Disconnected Short Fibers

 Moderate Impact Resistance: More prone to cracking under impact

 Noticeable Creep: Gradually deforms under sustained load

 Moderate Dimensional Stability: Higher warpage, wider tolerances

 Limited Fatigue Resistance: Degrades faster with repeated stress

Key Performance Differentiators

 Load Distribution

PA6-LGF40: Continuous fibers form a network that evenly distributes stress throughout the part.

PA6-GF40: Stress concentrates around isolated fiber ends, creating weak points.

 

Weight Efficiency

PA6-LGF40: Higher strength-to-weight ratio allows for thinner, lighter parts with equal performance.

PA6-GF40: Requires thicker sections to achieve similar strength, adding weight and material cost.

 Crack Propagation

PA6-LGF40: Long fibers bridge and stop cracks from spreading through the material.

PA6-GF40: Cracks easily propagate around short fibers, leading to sudden failure.

Long Fiber Thermoplastic LGF PA6 Nylon 6

Intro

Our PA6 LGF30 (30% Long Glass Fiber Reinforced PA6) pellets are made via a streamlined, high-precision process to ensure consistent fiber dispersion and mechanical strength. Here's our core production flow:

Step-by-Step Production

1. Fiber Roving Prep: Premium fiberglass rovings are unwound and aligned for uniform distribution, critical for maintaining 40% long glass fiber loading in PA6 LGF40.

2. Polymer Melting: Virgin PA6 resin + performance additives are melted in an extruder to create a homogeneous thermoplastic melt, optimized for fiber bonding.

3. Impregnation (Core Step): Fibers are saturated with molten PA6 in an advanced impregnation die, ensuring full coating and a precise 40% fiber-to-resin ratio for PA6 LGF40.

4. Pulling & Cooling: The composite strand is pulled to maintain tension, then cooled to solidify the matrix and preserve the 11mm fiber length that defines PA6 LGF40 performance.

5. Granulation: The solid strand is cut into 0.5" / 11mm PA6 LGF40 pellets, ready for downstream injection molding or extrusion.

The PA6-LGF40's lightweight, single-piece design consolidates multiple components, reducing assembly cost and weight.

Weight Reduction Without Compromising Structural Integrity

Replacing a multi-part steel assembly, the front-end module must withstand vibration, mechanical shock from road impacts, and exposure to varying temperatures while maintaining critical alignments.
LFT-G® PA6 LGF40 Verification Results:
  • Weight Reduction: Achieved over 35% vs. steel benchmark.
    Static Load Test: Exceeded 8000N without permanent deformation.
    Thermal Cycling (-30°C to +90°C): Zero failure in bracket mounting points.

Engineered to replace cast aluminum, this housing leverages the superior strength-to-weight ratio of LFT-G® technology.

Containing High Pressure and Resisting Wear

The material must endure constant internal oil pressures exceeding 15 MPa, resist wear from gear motion, and maintain sealing integrity across a wide temperature range in mobile hydraulic equipment.
LFT-G® PA6 LGF40 Verification Results:
  • Pressure Cycling Test: Sustained 2 million cycles at 20 MPa peak pressure.
    Wear Resistance: Shaft bore wear reduced by over 60% compared to standard PA66-GF30.
    Heat Aging (120°C, 1000h): Retention of >85% tensile strength and no significant deformation.

FAQ

What is LFT-G® PA6-GF40?

A: LFT-G® PA6-GF40 is a high-performance nylon 6 plastic reinforced with 40% long glass fibers. Made via the LFT-G® process, it offers exceptional strength, stiffness, and impact resistance compared to standard plastics, making it ideal for demanding structural parts and metal replacement.

How does long glass fiber improve impact strength in PA6?

A: Long glass fibers greatly improve impact strength by creating a network that absorbs and distributes energy. They bridge cracks and pull out under stress, which consumes more energy than short fibers, resulting in superior toughness, especially at low temperatures.

Can PA6-LGF40 be used in electrical enclosures?

A: Yes. PA6-LGF40 is suitable for structural electrical enclosures due to its high strength, stiffness, and good dimensional stability. It provides excellent protection against impact and can be formulated with flame-retardant properties to meet safety standards.
