It can be cut with saws, routers or knives (for very thin gauges), and can be drilled, milled and shaped. Sharp tools and appropriate cutting speeds are recommended to achieve clean edges and minimise heat build-up.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the natural cream colour suitable for food-related environments?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe natural cream colour is commonly used where easy visual inspection is required, including some food-related settings. However, suitability for direct food contact depends on the specific grade and regulatory requirements of your application, so you should confirm compliance before using it in contact with food products.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat thickness should I choose for my application?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe best thickness depends on the loads, span and level of flexibility required. Thinner sheets such as 0.5mm or 0.8mm are suited to shims and flexible liners, while 1mm to 2mm (and thicker options) provide greater stiffness and durability for wear strips, guards and structural components. If in doubt, consider expected loading and support, or consult a technician or engineer for guidance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Industrial Polymers","offers":[{"title":"0.5mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904557435,"sku":"PLC_IPL9626","price":224.71,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"0.8mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904590203,"sku":"PLC_IPL9627","price":337.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904622971,"sku":"PLC_IPL9628","price":211.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.5mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904655739,"sku":"PLC_IPL9629","price":303.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904688507,"sku":"PLC_IPL9630","price":395.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"3mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904721275,"sku":"PLC_IPL9631","price":580.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"4mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904754043,"sku":"PLC_IPL9632","price":764.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904786811,"sku":"PLC_IPL9633","price":948.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6mm \/ Natural (Cream) \/ 2000mm x 1000mm","offer_id":56379904819579,"sku":"PLC_IPL9634","price":1131.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0579\/7776\/6024\/files\/nylon66sheetsssssssss_20dcab56-f6ff-4528-8a4b-b40370e8ef98.jpg?v=1786795736","url":"https:\/\/industrial-polymers.co.uk\/products\/nylon-6-extruded-thin-sheet-cream-natural","provider":"Industrial-polymers ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
