Plastic fasteners are fasteners made of plastic materials, such as nylon, polypropylene, or PVC. They are used for various applications that require strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant components. Some examples of plastic fasteners are screws, bolts, nuts, washers, anchors, snaps, and rivets.
Plastic fasteners have several benefits over metal fasteners, such as:
- They are cheaper and easier to produce
- They are non-conductive and non-magnetic, which makes them suitable for electrical and electronic devices
- They are resistant to chemicals, moisture, and UV rays, which makes them durable and long-lasting
- They are available in different colors, shapes, and sizes, which makes them versatile and customizable
