Often, for various technical and safety requirements, you need to eliminate potential electrical conductors, and so you are obliged to use alternative materials such as plastic. These screws, as well as other items such as fasteners, rivets or clips, are almost exclusively manufactured in PA 6.6.
This material is a polyamide belonging to the family of the most known thermoplastics with the nylon 6.6 nomenclature, excellent for fixing systems that exclude the use of metal.
For special applications, especially if the operating temperature exceeds 100 °, it is better to evaluate the use of reinforced PA66 or alternative materials such as PVDF.
Furthermore, plastic parts can better withstand longer periods of corrosion than metal screws and have good elastic properties that offer resistance to vibrations.
On the website of Panozzo, in the section for Screws and plastic fastening articles, you can find all types of screws, washers, nuts with their dimensional characteristics and you can ask for samples and / or offers.
