1 Scope
This standard defines the requirements on materials for non-reinforced, glass fiber-reinforced,
and/or mineral-reinforced polyamide 66 (PA66) used in the engine, chassis, transmission, and
body areas (without paint).
For components that carry coolant, Technical Supply Specification TL 52682 applies.

2 Designation
The designation consists of the following parts:
PA66 as per VW 50133 + >grade< + >area of application<
If none of the areas of application listed in table 2 to table 7 apply, only the grade is specified.
Example for a part made of polyamide 66 with 30% glass fiber for use in the air intake area:
PA66-GF30 as per VW 50133 – PA66-6-A – intake manifold

3 Requirements

3.1 Basic requirements

Approval of first supply and changes as per Volkswagen standard VW 01155
Avoidance of hazardous substances as per VW 91101.
The tests must be carried out on specimens made from finished parts. If the tests cannot be per‐
formed on the component due to its geometry, reference may be given to data sheets or to meas‐
urements performed on test plates.
Characteristic values measured on finished parts can deviate from standard specifications. The de‐
viations must be agreed upon with the appropriate Material Engineering department and, if neces‐
sary, noted on the drawing.
 Page 3
VW 50133: 2015-08

3.2 Appearance
The finished parts must be free of flaws and processing defects (voids, cracks, cold shuts, etc.) on
the surface.
For parts that are subject to high loads or are especially functionally critical, an examination with
regard to porosity and appearance as per VW 50093 must be performed. After positive test results,
the measured characteristic values must be recorded on the drawing. The appropriate Design En‐
gineering department decides, together with the Material Engineering department, on the necessity
for porosity specifications.
The parts must permit proper assembly. There must not be any functional risks and/or risks of in‐
jury for assembly workers due to burrs and/or residual foreign matter becoming loose.

3.3 Manufacture
The materials are intended for injection molding or blow molding processes.
If the PA66 is not modified for impact resistance, using homogeneous regrind from the first machin‐
ing process is permissible up to a content of 30 weight percent. Components must be validated
with the maximum regrind percentage to be expected. The use of recycled materials, that is, raw
materials made from outside processing sources, is permissible only after consultation with the ap‐
propriate Design Engineering department and must be explicitly noted on the drawing.

3.4 Conditioning
A distinction is made between "dry" and "conditioned" conditioning states.
Specimens from components in the "dry" state have been dried until their weight remains constant
(see section 7.2) and continuously stored in a dry atmosphere before the testing.
Specimens in the "conditioned" state are specimens in the "dry" state that are aged in a water-tight
bag filled with water at 70 °C until the equilibrium state in table 1 is reached. Deviating from this
procedure, specimens may also be conditioned as per DIN EN ISO 1110.

3.5 Evaluation of the measurement results

The required numerical values apply to each individual measurement.

4 Material requirements
Special requirements on materials (e.g., lightfastness, flammability, emissions) must also be ob‐
tained from the drawing.

4.1 Workmanship
See section 7.1.
No through-thickness cracks or damage that could impair the function are permissible on the com‐
ponent.
Page 4
VW 50133: 2015-08

4.2 Moisture content

See section 7.2.
It must be ensured that the parts are delivered to the plants that will be using them with a minimum
moisture content of >0.7 weight percent H2O.
For parts that are clipped, latched, or installed with snap-on hooks during installation, the moisture
content must correspond to the equilibrium state specified in table 1, see also section 3.2.
Deviations must be noted on the drawing and are permissible only after discussion with the appro‐
priate Design Engineering and Material Engineering departments.

4.3 Melting temperature

See section 7.3.
The melting temperature must be >255 °C.

4.4 Elevated-temperature behavior

See section 7.4.
The parts must not exhibit any change in shape or surface after heat aging; the dimensional
change in length and width must not exceed 0.5%.

4.5 Low-temperature behavior

See section 7.5.
The finished parts must be fully functional at low temperatures. They must remain free of cracks
and other damage after being subsequently heated up to room temperature.

6 Requirements dependent on the place of use

For some places of use, additional requirements must be met; see table 2 to table 9.
The use of inorganic heat stabilizers in the polymer for transmission parts in contact with oil (e.g.,
connectors, printed circuit boards, mechatronics) is prohibited. In this case, the fulfillment of the
function must be ensured through the use of alternatives (e.g., organic stabilizers).

7 Notes on testing

7.1 Workmanship
At least 3 whole finished parts must be stored in a medium that promotes environmental stress
cracking (for better comparability, the use of coolant as per TL 774, "G12++" without added water
is recommended). The storage period is 48 h at a bath temperature of (135 ± 1) °C. Large parts
must be stored in an insulated container made from an inert material, such as stainless steel or
glass (no plastic). Circulation must be provided for the bath so that any temperature differences
within the whole setup are less than 2 K. Smaller parts may also be stored in suitable, covered
containers (beakers with covers/watch-glass) in a circulating air oven. Here, the temperature of the
medium must be monitored so that it reaches the desired temperatures.
The test medium must be regularly monitored with regard to its effective properties and replaced if
necessary. The devices under test (DUTs) must be heated to 135 °C together with the test fluid.
After coolant aging, the DUTs must be rinsed with tap water and then dried for 24 h at 70 °C. They
are then evaluated.
 Page 11
VW 50133: 2015-08

7.2 Moisture content

The moisture content is determined by drying the specimens in the (vacuum) oven. At least
3 specimens must be taken from 3 parts; these specimens are weighed with an accuracy of 0.01 g
and are then dried at 80 °C until a constant weight is obtained. Before the second weighing, the
specimens must be cooled down to (23 ± 2) °C in a desiccator. The moisture content may also be
determined with commercial moisture meters.

7.3 Melting temperature

The melting temperature must be determined by means of DSC (differential scanning calorimetry)
as per DIN EN ISO 11357-1.

7.4 Elevated-temperature behavior

Heat-aging test as per DIN 53497, method B, to be performed on at least one complete finished
part.
The aging time is (22 ± 2) h and the aging temperature is (150 ± 5) °C unless otherwise specified
in the drawing or release.

7.5 Low-temperature behavior

At least 2 finished parts that have been conditioned in a standard climate must be aged at
(−40 ± 1) °C for (22 ± 2) h.

7.6 Notched impact strength

The notched bar impact bending test (impact on narrow side) as per DIN EN ISO 179-1/1eA must
be performed. If the standard specimen size cannot be prepared from the part, a specimen with
length: (50 ± 1) mm, width: (10 ± 0.2) mm, thickness as in finished product (up to max. 4 mm);
notch type: V-notch; support spacing (support width): 40 mm; test equipment: pendulum impact
tester 4J may be used.

7.7 Tensile test

The yield stress and the elongation at break must be determined with a tensile test as per
DIN EN ISO 527-1 and DIN EN ISO 527-2, specimen 5A; test speed: 10 mm/min.

7.8 Aging in transmission fluid

Before the aging in transmission fluid starts, the specimens (dry condition; at least 3 each for the
subsequent tensile test and notched bar impact test) must be weighed with an accuracy of 0.01 g.
These specimens must then be aged in the defined transmission fluid at 150 °C for 96 h.
A second set of specimens must be aged in the corresponding transmission fluid for 504 h at
150 °C. The specimens must be stored in closed (non airtight) containers (e.g., watch-glass or alu‐
minum foil pressed over the edges). The specimens must be stored at least 3 cm above the bottom
of the container.
After being removed from the fluid, the specimens must be dried with a cloth, weighed again, and
then subjected to the mechanical tests. If the mechanical characteristic values are already outside
of the requirements after 96 h, the 504 h aging test must be stopped.
Page 12
VW 50133: 2015-08

7.9 Heat aging

For heat aging, at least 1 complete finished part and specimens (at least 3 each for each subse‐
quent mechanical test) must be aged in a forced-air oven at 150 °C for 1 000 h as per DIN 53497.
After aging, the specimens must be stored in a desiccator unless they are subjected to the me‐
chanical tests immediately after aging.

7.10 Aging in engine oil

At least 3 specimens (dry conditioning) for each subsequent mechanical test must be aged at
150 °C for at least 1 000 h in a test oil as per TL 52185 or as per the drawing specification. After
completion of the aging period, the specimens are wiped dry and checked with regard to changes
in their mechanical properties.

7.11 Aging in grease

At least 3 specimens (dry conditioning) for each subsequent mechanical test must be aged at
70 °C for at least 1 000 h in a grease as per TL 745 and TL 735 or as per the drawing specifica‐
tion. After completion of the aging period, the specimens are wiped dry and checked with regard to
changes in their mechanical properties.

7.12 Flexural strength

The flexural stress is determined at maximum load as per DIN EN ISO 178.
Specimen with length: (50 ± 1) mm; width: (10 ± 0.2) mm; thickness as in the finished product (up
to a max. of 4 mm); support spacing: 40 mm; radius of support: 1.0 mm to 1.2 mm; test speed:
(14 ± 1) mm/min.
Specimens taken from molded parts with one-sided graining must be placed on the test machine
supports so that the grained side faces the loading edge.

7.13 Impact strength

Impact strength test (impact on wide side) as per DIN EN ISO 179-1.
Specimen length: (50 ± 1) mm, width: (6 ± 0.2) mm, thickness as in the finished product (up to a
max. of 4 mm); distance between supports (support spacing): 40 mm; test equipment: pendulum
impact tester 4J.
Specimens taken from finished parts with one-sided graining must be positioned on the supports of
the pendulum impact tester with the grained side facing the hammer edge.
The specimens must be tested in a "dry" conditioning state.

7.14 Fan wheel weld line strength

The flexural stress is determined at maximum load as per DIN EN ISO 178.
Specimen with length: (60 ± 1) mm; width: (10 ± 0.2) mm; thickness as in the finished product (up
to a max. of 4 mm); support spacing: 40 mm; radius of support: 1.0 mm to 1.2 mm; test speed:
(14 ± 1) mm/min.
The weld line of the outer fan ring is in the middle of the specimen.
The curvature of the specimen points upward and the weld line is at the point where the force is
applied.
