NYCAST® NYLOIL®
A cast nylon with built-in oil lubrication, NYLOIL® provides superior machinability,
performance, and durability compared to other plastic and traditional bearing
materials. Three grades of NYLOIL® are available to fit the most demanding
applications: original Green Nyloil for most bearing applications; food-grade,
Natural Nyloil-FG for direct contact with food; and MoS2 filled Gray Nyloil-MDX with
slightly higher compressive load capabilities than original NYLOIL®.
During NYLOIL s manufacturing process, an oil lubricant package is completely dispersed
within the cast nylon matrix, making it an integral part of the casting s structure.
Although not evident by sight or touch, the oil lubricant in NYLOIL is always at the
surface regardless of the amount of material removed during finish machining or normal
wear.
NYLOIL-FG is a self lubricating nylon bearing material which meets the provisions of FDA
Regulations 21 CFR, Section 177.15 (and others) and USDA 3A Sanitary Standards 20-17 for
direct contact with food. This is a particularly useful material where additional
lubrication is not desirable because of cleanability, contamination, or other
considerations.
Gray NYLOIL-MDX is formulated with a Molybdenum Disulfide filler which promotes higher
crystallinity in the cast polymer, in addition to the oil lubricant package. This yields a
bearing material with more consistent intermolecular structure and generally a narrower
distribution within the range of physical property values, while retaining the advanced
friction properties of unfilled Nyloil.
Nyloil® is a registered trade name of Cast Nylons Ltd. See also our section on Oil-Filled
Nylon, which is the generic version of this product.

NYLOIL® FEATURES:
The incorporation of an oil lubricant package into the nylon matrix provides
significant advantages over other bearing materials:
- Lubrication results in 25% lower coefficient of friction than other grades of nylon.
- Performs in harsh environments where lubrication is difficult, impossible, or un-desirable.
- Operates efficiently in direct contact with abrasive slurries.
- Works successfully in marine applications.
- Reduced water absorption promotes higher dimensional stability.
- Works and machines as easily as brass.
- Oil will not spin out, dry out, or drain out, even under the harshest operating conditions.
