Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized material for the application, leading to premature wear and failure.Always select a Nylon stock sheet with adequate thickness and strength ratings that exceed the operational demands of the pneumatic system.
Improper machining of Nylon, resulting in excessive heat build-up and material deformation.Employ sharp tooling and adequate lubrication/cooling during machining to prevent thermal damage to the Nylon.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic Cylinder Seals and Rod Wipers
  • Valve Seats and Bushings
  • Wear Strips and Guides for Pneumatic Actuators
  • Custom Gaskets and Diaphragms for Pneumatic Controls

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong acids or oxidizing agents, as Nylon can degrade under such conditions.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during machining operations to dissipate any fumes generated.
