FAQ

Why use polymer plastic or advanced material screws?

Advanced materials and polymer plastic screws have many benefits over traditional steel screws such as:

1.Low gravity and very light weight (polymer plastic) of about 1/5 to 1/6 vs. metal screws
2.High electric resistance and strong electric insulation for plastic screws
3.Corrosion-proof characteristics for plastic screws
4.Thermal conductivity is minimal with good adiabatic performance for plastic screws
5.Anti-magnetic characteristics for plastic screws
