Reely Polyamide Solid Round Bar 30 mm Diameter x 500 mm Length Natural RE-7394556

When you need a machinable plastic rod that can handle wear, friction, and exposure to oils or solvents, this Reely polyamide solid round bar is a practical choice. Made from PA6, it offers high abrasion resistance and good impact strength, making it suitable for producing custom parts like bearings, gears, rollers, and sliding elements. Its natural, unpigmented colour gives you a clean base for further processing or use as-is.

Who is it for

This rod is aimed at machinists, maintenance technicians, and DIY makers who need a reliable engineering plastic for turning, milling, or fabricating wear-resistant components. It works well in workshops, prototyping labs, and repair settings where metal parts may be too heavy or prone to corrosion.

Tips

For best results, use sharp tools and adequate cooling when machining this polyamide rod. Store it in a dry place to minimise moisture absorption, which can slightly affect dimensions. If tight tolerances are required, consider conditioning the finished part in the operating environment before final measurement.
