Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using insufficient thickness for the application's pressure requirements.Consult pneumatic system design specifications and material strength charts to select the appropriate Nylon sheet thickness for the intended pressure and load.
Failing to properly deburr cut edges, leading to premature wear.Always ensure all cut edges are smooth and free of burrs using a deburring tool or fine-grit sandpaper after cutting.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic seals and O-rings
  • Wear pads and guides in pneumatic cylinders
  • Custom gaskets for pneumatic fittings and enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong acids and oxidizing agents, which can degrade Nylon.
