Yana Shiki uses an engineering grade, 60% long glass fiber nylon 6.6 throughout all its bolt on Secondary Engine Covers. This nylon is stronger, more flexible, oil and fire resistant and most of all extremely impact resistant, making this material an invaluable part of our product range. The long fibers absorb more energy before and after fracture initiates. Fracture crack lines are forced around the fiber ends, resulting in a limited fracture area. Injection molded products offer additional built in strength and flexibility compared to conventional machined plastics. Not only are the Long Glass Nylon 6.6 compounds used for exceptional impact resistance but are tailored to satisfy the need for light but durable die-cast metal replacement materials and are of our own specifications and patents. They offer an extremely cost-effective alternative to carbon fiber products and are far stronger than our rivals. The world shortage of carbon fiber has resulted in very high raw material costs, and carbon fiber products are extremely labor intensive to manufacture.
