Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastic machining, leading to chipping or melting.Utilize sharp, carbide-tipped tooling specifically designed for machining Nylon. Maintain appropriate cutting speeds and feed rates to manage heat generation.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing localized stress and potential cracking of the Nylon.Employ washers and avoid excessive torque when fastening components made from this Nylon stock. Consider slotted holes for thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic cylinder components
  • High-wear pneumatic seals and gaskets
  • Pneumatic valve components and actuators

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation, as it can degrade Nylon over time.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining Nylon to remove airborne particles and fumes.
