  • 1.  Medical Grade Nylon 66 Supplier

    Posted 01-29-2021 09:43
    Hi all,

    Would anyone be able to connect me with a supplier willing to supply Medical Grade Nylon 66 for a project here in Ireland.

    Early stage prototyping in progress with standard and food grade materials, but need to move to Medical Grade.

    Thanks in advance!

    I took a quick look in the ASM Medical Materials Database. It has listings for five specific grades of Polyamide 66 (Nylon 66):
    • ColorRx NY2-1000RX (Conditioned)
    • ColorRx NY2-1000RX (Dry)
    • Zytel 42A NC010
    • Zytel SC310 NC010 (Dry)
    • Zytel ST801 NC010
    The database notes that these grades are marketed as being suitable for medical applications.

    The supplier for the ColorRx grades is listed as LTL Color Compounders, Inc. The supplier for the Zytel grades is listed as DuPont, Inc.

    I hope this helps!
