Nylon is highly used in the automotive industry due to its high workability, stress and toughness and it is generally used in the automotive industry. The polymer is a good supporter of both molding and extrusion processes, making it useful for manufacturing a variety of auto parts. Auto parts which are exposed to high temperatures and fluids, such as engine lubricants, are made from polyamide. PA 6 and PA 6,6 parts are comparatively lighter than the metallics components. This factor can have a significant impact on the efficiency of conventional IC-powered vehicles. The increasing cost of gasoline and concerns about the environment are leading people to consider the vehicle economy when purchasing a car.

3D printing will change the future of the global nylon market. Excellent malleability makes them much tougher than other traditionally used thermoplastic such as PLA and ABS.These polymers have the potential to become a popular printing material for 3-D printers. The flexibility and durability of polyamide can help in 3-D printing parts with thin walls.
