Conditioned 50% Glass Fiber (50 GF) PA 4/6
Conditioned 50 GF PA 4/6 is a grade of PA 4/6. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare conditioned 50 GF PA 4/6 to: polyamide plastics (top), all thermoplastics (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
