In the world of plastic fasteners innovation is always the key. As the industry grows, so does the need for more solutions. Plastic fasteners not only provide the strength needed, but serve to drive the shipping costs down due to their lightweight construction.
Although Joe Volltrauer established Volt Industrial Plastics in 1992, the company's roots actually stem from 1952, when Joe came to the United States from Vienna. Through the years, Volt has led the way when it comes to meeting customer demand, primarily due to the in house innovation process that allows them to create “all things new.”
This year, Volt has introduced many new plastic fasteners which are being shipped and used worldwide. While you can see their list of almost 100 new products on their website, here are just a few that top the list.
Volt’s Special Flat Washers are washers that are strong, lightweight, and resistant to friction. These non-metal plastic washers offer considerable insulation properties and are extremely resistant to corrosion. They also help to reduce vibration, making it easier to loosen and tighten fastener assemblies. Special Flat Washers come with an inner diameter ranging from .055 to 1.500.
The LED Spacers serve to raise the LED from the board surface, providing more stability, rigidity, and height conformity. These are also a type of LED mount called a mount spacer, spacer mount and LED standoffs.
Cable Clamps provide an easy solution to binding and securing single or small bundles of cables and wires. You can quickly and efficiently attach wire and cable bundles to the wall, ceiling, or other surfaces with a single screw. Volt’s cable clamps virtually eliminate the risk of crushing, bending, cutting and galvanic corrosion of wires, cables and tubing often experienced with metal clamps. No leaks, no flow restrictions, no breaks and no shorts as a result of using plastic cable clamps.
Dowel Pins may be used in locating or assembling where a fiction fit is required. Dowel Pins are commonly used in automotive and furniture applications.
Shoulder Washers are used to insulate fasteners, wires or shafts from moisture and electricity. They look like a typical flat washer on one end with an attached sleeve, or bushing at the other end. Shoulder Washers come with an inner diameter ranging from .090 to 12.7mm.
In addition to these highlighted new plastic fasteners from Volt, others that are worth mentioning include:
