Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard Nylon for high-wear, self-lubricating applications.Specify and utilize a lubricating grade Nylon stock sheet specifically designed for reduced friction and enhanced wear resistance.
Improperly tolerancing cuts, leading to binding or excessive play.Adhere to precise cutting tolerances and verify dimensions against mating parts to ensure smooth operation.

Common Applications

  • Wear Strips and Pads
  • Self-Lubricating Bushings
  • Guide Rails and Rollers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong acids and oxidizing agents.
  • Operating temperatures should remain within the material's specified limits to prevent degradation and loss of mechanical properties.
