Nylon, a synthetic polymer known for its toughness, elasticity, and resistance to abrasion, serves as a superior alternative to metal parts and assemblies. It offers corrosion resistance, easy cleaning, non-contamination properties for food manufacturing, and durability in high-speed manufacturing settings. Providing improved performance and longer equipment life, nylon parts are used to replace underperforming metal parts including bearings, gears, and wear pads.
