Raw materials of nuts mainly include metal materials and plastic materials.
Metal materials
Carbon steel: Carbon steel is one of the most common nut materials. According to the carbon content, it is divided into low carbon steel, medium carbon steel and high carbon steel. Low carbon steel (such as A3 steel, 1008, 1015, etc.) is often used for ordinary fasteners, while high carbon steel is used in situations where higher strength and wear resistance are required. Stainless steel: Stainless steel nuts have excellent corrosion resistance and heat resistance and are often used in situations where high strength and corrosion resistance are required. Common stainless steel models include SUS304 and SUS316, etc. Copper: Copper nuts are usually made of brass (such as H59, H62, H65, etc.), which has good conductivity and corrosion resistance. They are often used in electrical connections and situations where good conductivity is required. Plastic materials
Nylon: Nylon nuts are widely used in communications, electronics and other industries due to their excellent wear resistance, heat resistance and chemical corrosion resistance. Nylon 66 (NYLON66) is one of the most commonly used materials.
Polycarbonate (PC): PC material has high transparency, high strength and good heat resistance, and is suitable for occasions requiring high impact resistance, such as automobile manufacturing and electronic equipment housing.
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF): PVDF nuts are known for their excellent acid and alkali resistance and are suitable for industries such as chemical and electroplating.
Polypropylene (PP): PP material has low density, good heat resistance and excellent processing properties, and is suitable for general industrial applications.
Polyoxymethylene (POM): POM nuts are used in high-load occasions, such as mechanical transmission parts, due to their excellent wear resistance and mechanical strength.
