LFT-G® PA66 GF30 Long Glass Fiber Filled Pellets
|
|
LFT-G® PA66 LGF30 delivers exceptional impact strength compared to standard reinforced thermoplastics. They are produced using a specialized pultrusion process that creates long pellets (6–12 mm) with continuous glass fibers running the full length of the pellet. During molding, these fibers form a three-dimensional reinforcing network that greatly enhances impact resistance while boosting strength and rigidity. PA66 LGF30 Compounds from LFT-G are a trusted solution for metal replacement, making them ideal for automotive and industrial applications because they:
Our PA66 LGF30 Compounds are available in multiple formulations and can be injection molded efficiently into complex parts, reducing secondary finishing operations and overall costs. |

Processing Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance and minimize fiber breakage during the injection molding of LFT-G® PA66- LGF30, follow these recommended processing steps and parameters:
| Parameter | Recommended Range | Key Notes for PA6 LGF30 |
| Drying Temperature ① | 90 – 110 °C | Use a desiccant/dry air dryer to avoid hydrolysis |
| Drying Time ① | 3 – 4 hours | Ensure uniform moisture removal before processing |
| Melt Temperature (Nozzle) ③ | 210 – 240 °C | Avoid overheating to preserve fiber integrity |
| Mold Temperature ② | 40 – 60 °C | Balances flowability and part dimensional stability |
| Injection Speed | Slow to Moderate | Minimize fiber breakage and internal shear |
Critical Tips：
Screw: Low-compression screw to reduce fiber breakage
Gating: Generous gating for smooth material flow
