A Guide to PAI CNC Machined Parts: Properties, Applications and Design Considerations
What is PAI?
PAI (Polyamide-imide) is a high performance amorphous thermoplastic which is often used in place of metal components where there are weight restrictions.
PAI is considered the highest performing thermoplastic. It is available in a number of grades (such as carbon-fibre reinforced, glass-fibre reinforced, PTFE-filled, graphite-filled, unfilled, wear resistant, high strength, low friction) with varying characteristics.
Main Attributes of PAI:
- High service temperature in air (up to around 260°C continuously)
- Good UV resistance
- Excellent dimensional stability
- Low coefficient of linear thermal expansion
- High creep resistance
- Yellow to brown colour
- Excellent chemical resistance (except strong alkali, oxidising acids & nitrogen containing solvents)
- Excellent electrical properties
- High cost
- Flame resistant
- High impact strength
- Can be bonded
- Low moisture absorption
