PAX ETG61 Nylon-Olefin Alloy

PAX ETG61 is a Mercury Plastics developed nylon-olefin alloy thermoplastic. This material was specifically designed as a lower cost alternative to lubricated nylons typically used in fuel, vacuum and hydraulic line applications, including nylon 11 and nylon 12.

Compared to nylon, PAX ETG61 offers:

• Increased tensile strength
• Improved tear strength
• Better heat resistance
• Superior heat aging properties
• Lower coefficient of linear thermal expansion

PAX ETG61 has been shown to have equivalent permeability to nylon 11 and nylon 12 when tested according to ASTM DD471 Ref. Fuel A and has passed the SAE J-844 zinc chloride test.
