From reducing weight and costs to improving durability and resistance, plastic fasteners are a smart alternative to traditional metal fasteners. These selling points have helped bring much success over the past decades to Volt Industrial Plastics, located in Yellville, Arkansas. Mastering the art of producing and delivering precision-engineered plastic fasteners that provide a cost-saving option to manufacturers across the globe, Volt’s customers have grown to rely and depend on these innovative fasteners that are strong and reliable.
1. Lightweight Yet Strong
One of the biggest advantages of plastic fasteners is their weight—or lack of it. Unlike metal fasteners, which can add unnecessary bulk, plastic fasteners offer high tensile strength while remaining lightweight. This makes them ideal for industries where reducing weight can improve performance, such as automotive and consumer electronics.
2. Corrosion-Resistant
Rust and corrosion can be a major issue with metal fasteners, especially in humid or chemical-heavy environments. Plastic fasteners don’t rust, corrode, or degrade over time, making them a long-lasting solution for outdoor applications, marine use, and harsh industrial settings.
3. Non-Conductive & Non-Magnetic
For applications where electrical conductivity is a concern, plastic fasteners provide a safe, non-conductive solution. They’re also non-magnetic, making them perfect for use in sensitive electronic equipment and other environments where metal interference can be a problem.
4. Cost-Effective & Customizable
Plastic fasteners are more affordable to produce and maintain than metal alternatives. At Volt Industrial Plastics, we offer custom molding options to create the exact fasteners in the color of your choosing that you need for your project, ensuring a perfect fit and look for any application.
On Volt’s website you’ll find just under 100 new products that they have developed and now offer to their customers. Some of these include Hex Jam Nuts, Machine Hex, Phillips Fillister, Phillips Flat & Pan, Slotted Fillister, Slotted Binding, Slotted Round & Set, Shoulder Washers, Special Flat Washers and more!
In the fast-paced world of manufacturing, efficiency and performance are everything. When it comes to fasteners, the choice between metal and plastic can make a huge difference.
