Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not suitable for plastic machining, leading to poor edge quality.Employ sharp, high-speed steel or carbide tooling specifically designed for cutting nylon to achieve clean, precise edges.
Overheating the material during machining, causing melting or deformation.Use adequate cooling lubricants and control feed rates and spindle speeds to manage heat buildup during cutting and shaping.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic cylinder seals
  • Valve seats and stems
  • Wear components and guide bushings
  • Pneumatic manifold fabrication

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining to avoid inhaling dust.
  • Nylon can absorb moisture; store in a dry environment to maintain dimensional stability.
