Message
Ultramid 8253 is an unreinforced, impact modified type 6 graft copolymer developed for both injection molding and extrusion applications. It is also available in heat stabilized (Ultramid 8253 HS) and/or pigmented versions. Copolymerization results in improved dry as molded toughness and increased flexibility to meet higher impact performance compared to conventional unreinforced homopolymers. Good nylon thermal and chemical properties are maintained along with good strength and stiffness retention.

Applications
Ultramid 8253 is generally recommended for applications such as plugs, receptacles, flexible connector covers, weed trimmer components, clips, fasteners, flanges, key housings as well as many flexible tubing applications.
