FAQ of Nylon Injection Molding
Why choose nylon for injection molding?
Nylon injection molding is ideal for producing durable, high-load components that must maintain structural integrity over time. It’s commonly used to replace metal in applications needing strength and reduced weight.
What are the common issues when molding nylon?
Moisture absorption is a key concern, pre-drying is essential. Improper tool design or insufficient drying can lead to warping, voids, or inconsistent dimensions.
Can nylon be used for overmolding or insert molding?
Yes. Nylon overmolding is often used with metals or glass-filled materials for added strength, but careful attention is needed to ensure proper adhesion and shrinkage control.
Do you offer glass-filled or flame-retardant nylon materials?
Yes. We work with a wide range of polyamide injection molding grades including glass-reinforced, flame-retardant, and lubricated nylons to meet various mechanical and regulatory requirements.
Is nylon suitable for high-temperature applications?
Nylon 6/6 and other reinforced grades can withstand continuous use up to 120°C–150°C, making them suitable for automotive, electrical, and industrial uses.
What is the lead time for nylon injection molding projects?
Standard tooling takes 2–4 weeks. Once validated, production can begin quickly depending on part complexity and order volume.
