Release time:2020-11-24


A brief introduction to the raw material properties of plastic fasteners is shared with everyone to help everyone further understand plastic fasteners and provide assistance to bag makers. I. Polyoxymethylene (POM) Commonly known as: Celcon, a combustible material Advantages: 1. Strong and elastic 2. Excellent fatigue resistance 3. Self-lubricating, excellent friction and wear resistance 4. Excellent heat resistance and cold resistance Suitable for: buckles, hooks, eyelet buckles, D-rings, rope buckles II. ABS A combustible material Advantages: 1. Excellent appearance properties 2. Excellent electroplating characteristics 3. Excellent low-temperature impact resistance 4. Small molding shrinkage, excellent dimensional accuracy 5. Excellent acid and alkali resistance Suitable for: electroplated fasteners, handles III. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) A self-extinguishing material Advantages: 1. Softness can be freely adjusted 2. Hard and strong 3. Excellent weather resistance Suitable for: shoulder pads, handles, bases IV. Polyamide (PA) Commonly known as: nylon, a self-extinguishing material Advantages: 1. Strong and has good impact strength 2. Self-lubricating, excellent wear resistance and abrasion resistance 3. Excellent heat resistance Suitable for: buckles, handles V. Polypropylene (PP) A combustible material Advantages: 1. The lightest among plastics 2. Excellent heat resistance 3. Low water absorption, therefore has good high-frequency electrical insulation performance Suitable for: buckles, eyelet buckles, D-rings, handles VI. Polycarbonate (PC) A self-extinguishing material Advantages: 1. Excellent impact strength 2. Excellent heat resistance and cold resistance 3. Excellent weather resistance 4. Good dimensional stability 5. Has permeability
