Plastic Fastener News & Industry Guide

PEEK screws are made of Polyether Ether Ketone material, featuring high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and high strength, widely used in aerospace, medical, and automotive industries.

Plastic fasteners are increasingly used in electronics due to lightweight, insulation, corrosion resistance properties.

Nylon screws and metal screws comparison: weight, insulation, corrosion resistance, strength, temperature range.

Traditional 'pure screw-driving' positions will greatly decrease, but 'screw workers' will not collectively become unemployed; instead, they will be forced to transform or be reassigned.

In industrial and consumer fields where the demand for lightweight, insulation, and corrosion resistance is increasing, plastic fasteners are gradually replacing traditional metal screws, becoming the core solution for connecting plastic parts, precision equipment, and special environments.

Pure PA66 is too soft, too prone to deformation, dimensionally unstable, and not heat resistant. Glass fiber is added to 'reinforce and control shape,' especially if you are making nylon screws or fasteners, glass fiber must be added to make it usable.

Stripping generally refers to the plastic deformation, wear, or tearing of the external threads of a screw or the internal threads of a nut, which results in failure to engage effectively and transmit torque. This is especially relevant for plastic screws.

High-temperature resistant, with a long-term service temperature range of -200°C to 260°C and short-term tolerance up to 300°C.

Polypropylene (PP) is characterized by its low density and light weight, along with excellent resistance to acids and alkalis, making it a common material in the chemical industry. However, it has relatively poor rigidity and mechanical strength compared to nylon. It is like a specialized "special forces soldier": while not aiming for all-around capability, it performs exceptionally well in its ow
