HYDLAR® Z GRADES

Hydlar® Z - Hydlar® Z is the basic, most common grade available. This Nylon material with Kevlar® aramid fibers only. Hydlar® Z is NOT FDA, USDA, or 3A-Dairy compliant.

Hydlar® ZF - Effective in January 2006, Hydlar® ZF (FDA, USDA and 3A-Dairy compliant) material is no longer being produced . The manufacturer of the resin has changed the formulation and it is no longer FDA compliant. Check for availability of the "ZF" grade of compliant material before proceeding.

Hydlar® ZT - Hydlar® ZT has the added benefit of a small amount of PTFE added for increased lubricity (lower friction) resulting in improved wear resistance.

Hydlar® ZM - Hydlar® ZM has the added benefit of a small amount of Molybdenum Disulphide added for improved surface hardness and increased lubricity (lower friction) resulting in improved wear resistance.
