Application Outlook of Non-Metallic Fasteners in Lightweighting

Application Outlook of Non-Metallic Fasteners in Lightweighting

With automotive lightweighting, slimmer consumer electronics and insulation-focused new-energy designs advancing, plastic fasteners are expanding their application outlook thanks to light weight, insulation and corrosion resistance.

Automotive and New Energy: Weight Reduction and Insulation

Plastic bolts and nuts reduce weight in non-structural areas, while nylon and peek parts provide insulation and protection in battery packs, high-voltage connections and electronic control components, supporting vehicle lightweighting and electrical safety.

Electronics and Appliances: Balance of Cost and Performance

plastic fasteners can form complex structures in one molding, reducing part counts. Flame retardancy, weatherability and dielectric properties meet appliance and electronics safety standards as an effective supplement to metal parts.

Selection Direction

Choose nylon 66 for general conditions, PC for transparent and optical applications, peek for high temperature and strength, and pvdf for chemical resistance. Consider temperature, load, insulation and environmental requirements.

The plastic fastener range provides multi-material selection and customization for automotive, electronics and new-energy customers.
