What Are Nylon Fasteners?


Generally, fasteners are made of rigid materials as they are responsible for holding two or more objects together in one place. Nevertheless, there are various fasteners made from nylon that are available in the market, such as zip locks, screws, nuts, etc. They all have specific uses and are vital in various appliances. Nylon fasteners are considered the best choice in some instances due to their superior quality over conventional metal types. Therefore, they are used in many appliances as they are shockproof fasteners. 

Nylon fasteners are plastic screws made of nylon and different plastic materials such as acetyl, PVC, polypropylene, and polycarbonate. Nylon screw heads are just like standard metal ones; however, nylon fasteners have a narrow thread profile as compared to metal screws, those of which help reduce radial stress. They are designed with the purpose of holding objects together for a specific application.

Nylon fasteners are treated with different types of chemicals which can improve UV performance and resistance to flames. Additionally, routine maintenance is necessary to check the durability and functionality of every nylon fastener. Moreover, nylon is considered the best material for installation in electronic devices as the materials used in making nylon fasteners are resistant to electricity. Therefore, these are the best substitutes for metal ones.

Nylon fasteners are the best replacement for metal fasteners as they can be considered a more optimal choice in certain instances. In addition, they are significantly lighter than metal fasteners. Therefore, it will reduce the weight of the entire project if you use nylon fasteners.

What Are the Applications of Nylon Fasteners?
  • Nylon fasteners come in various colors and are effective enough that they can hold items of around a hundred pounds. They are commonly used to lock ties to attach tags to items. Therefore, they are functional and durable.
  • Nylon fasteners protect people from electric shock when touching objects, so they can often be found in circuit boards which use electricity. As a result, nylon fasteners are less dangerous to handle as compared to metal fasteners.
  • Nylon fasteners are found in various home appliances such as electronics, washing machines, and many other heavy-duty systems. They are best suited for home appliances because they are made of plastic and have ample resistance and insulation.
