If you don’t, plastics can significantly reduce thecost and weight, and assembling complexities of your projects, although you may already know some of the benefits of plastic parts. Plastic is lightweight, non-magnetic, non-corrosive, non-toxic, non-flammable, non-abrasive, non-conducting, and can be heat resistant, making it an invaluable manufacturing option for a wide variety of industries and applications. Depending on the material that you select for manufacturing your fastener, you can decide whether or not you prefer it to be stronger, harder, more flexible, and temperature or UV resistant, in order to give it them exact properties desired. At Volt, we have the capability of molding over 120 different materials and can color match each material for specific applications.

Understanding the qualities of different materials can help you customize your fasteners for their exact application. Here are some examples of some common materials used for manufacturing at Volt: Nylon is generally best for any application that involves high heat and requires chemical resistance and toughness. Some examples include under-the-hood automotive components, electrical connectors for the telecommunications and computer industries and components of medical devices. Nylon products can be found in virtually every industry, and parts in a broad range of colors can be produced with most nylon resins.

Thermoplastic Elastomer Compounds (TPE) are easily processed in a wide range of parameters for injection molding applications. Features of this material are soft touch, rubbery feel, excellent colorability, and good ozone/UV stability. Thermoplastic Elastomer Compounds (TPE) has excellent grip characteristics and is extremely weatherproof. Examples of applications are medical and package tubing, closures and seals, household products, infant and personal care products and PVC replacement.
