Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to chipping or melting.Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools designed for plastics, ensuring proper feed rates and cooling if necessary.
Improperly securing the sheet during machining, causing vibration and inaccurate cuts.Utilize clamps or a vacuum hold-down system to firmly secure the Nylon stock sheet to the work surface before machining.

Common Applications

  • Wear Strips and Pads
  • Bushings and Bearings
  • Custom Machine Components
  • Protective Guards

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to high temperatures which can degrade material properties.
  • Nylon can absorb moisture; store in a dry environment to maintain dimensional stability.
