Nylon
Nylon
A widely used industrial plastic that is practical for a variety of projects. Nylon can withstand high impact, high temperatures, and deterioration. Nylon can also resist an array of corrosive chemicals and oxidizing agents. Nylon can be manufactured into many different shapes allowing it to work for many projects. The typical uses for Nylon are used in bolts, washers, nuts, and other hardware.
