Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting methods that generate excessive heat, potentially altering material properties.Employ cooling techniques or specialized cutting blades designed for polymers to maintain material integrity during fabrication.
Over-tightening fasteners or assembly components, leading to stress concentration and potential premature failure.Follow torque specifications and use appropriate clearance designs to prevent undue stress on nylon components.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Cylinder Bushings
  • Wear Strips and Pads
  • Seal Housings and Back-up Rings
  • Guide Blocks in Pumps and Valves

⚠️ Engineering Warnings
