I have to chime in here - I use to work with 6-6 - and its applications were a
whole lot more streesful than clips for a DC Install. In its pure form, I would
guess that this statement would be true - then that would lead me to believe that
these clips are made of pure 6-6...and there I have my doubts.

I'd be looking at the molder, and/or the 're-work' that goes into making this
piece of plastic - not the 6-6.
