Screw Barrel for Glass-Filled PA (Nylon)

Thirty percent glass fibre will grind a nitrided barrel oval within a year. For glass-filled PA we supply a matched wear package: bimetallic barrel with a 2–5 mm centrifugal alloy lining, plus a screw with hardened flight lands and a corrosion-resistant check valve.

Typical service life on 33% GF PA66 is three to five times that of a nitrided set. Tell us the glass loading and annual tonnage and we will quote the right alloy — over-specifying costs you money, under-specifying costs you downtime.

Common Questions

Questions Buyers Ask About This Product

Is bimetallic really necessary for glass-filled PA?

If you run it full-time, yes — the payback is usually under a year compared with replacing nitrided barrels. For occasional short runs, a hardened nitrided set can be the more economical choice; we will say so honestly.

Does the screw need protection too?

Yes. The barrel is only half the wear pair — we harden the flight lands and supply a wear-resistant check valve so the whole set ages evenly.

What hardness certificate comes with it?

Every set ships with an MTC listing the alloy heat number, lining thickness and hardness readings; third-party inspection can be arranged.
