Plastic Screw Temperature Resistance Guide Nylon PP PTFE Working Temperature
Plastic Screw Temperature Resistance Guide Nylon PP PTFE
Temperature resistance is a key factor for plastic fasteners. Exceeding the temperature range will cause softening, deformation or brittleness, leading to connection failure.
Temperature Performance Comparison Table
| Material | Working Temp Range | Short-term Limit | Low Temp Resistance | Application |
| PA6 Nylon | -20℃ ~ 90℃ | 110℃ | Poor | General indoor electronics |
| PA66 Nylon | -30℃ ~ 120℃ | 150℃ | Good | Precision electronics, mild high temp |
| PP Polypropylene | -20℃ ~ 80℃ | 100℃ | Poor | Water treatment, humid conditions |
| PTFE | -200℃ ~ 260℃ | 300℃ | Excellent | Extreme temperature & chemical equipment |
Key Notes
High temperature causes plastic softening and creep. Low temperature reduces toughness and increases brittleness. PA66 and PTFE have better temperature stability for harsh conditions. Select the right material according to your actual working temperature range.
