Hi,

I was wondering about autoclaving nylon 6/6...Is the discoloration bad?...Do you know how many cycles it can take? Does it become brittle? Any more info can help...We want to replacing pvc with an autoclavable material..price is a major concern...What do you think?
 
There are heat stabilized and hydrolysis resistant grades of nylons. They are used for things like automotive radiator header tanks. Expect to pay more.

Would you know pricing on 1.50" diameter/foot? or where to get pricing?
