Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools without considering nylon's thermal expansion.Employ specialized router bits or end mills designed for plastics, and maintain appropriate cutting speeds to manage heat buildup.
Machining without adequate chip evacuation, leading to melting and tool binding.Ensure sufficient air blast or vacuum systems are in place to clear chips effectively during the machining process.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction bushings and bearings
  • Wear strips and guides
  • Gears and sprockets
  • Custom-machined components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong acids and bases.
  • Machining at excessive speeds can lead to melting and degradation of material properties.
