Advantages of Nylon injection molding
Nylon is a good material when you need both strength, flexibility and temperature resistance. Its one of the most widely used plastic for making components which require strength and tear resistance
- Good tear resistance
- Heat resistance
- Impact resistance
- Easy to mold
- Can be made Flame and UV retardant

We can make customized color masterbatch to bring the color you want in the product
Product texture
Over 10 different types of texturing options to choose from
Electroplating
Electroplated chrome or silver to get some metallic properties and finish
Painting
Custom paint your parts with different combination of colors with a Matt/Gloss finish
Design guidelines for Nylon Injection molding
Minimum wall thickness for ABS parts
A minimum wall thickness of 0.9 mm to a maximum of 3mm should be maintained for Nylon parts. Lower wall thickness will cause filling issues while higher wall thickness will cause sink marks on the part
Uniform wall thickness
A uniform wall thickness should be maintained throughout the part to ensure smooth flow of material. Inconsistent wall thickness will hamper filling
Draft angles
Nylon injection molded parts generally have a 1 – 2 degree draft to ensure easy removal of part from the mold
Sharp corners
A fillet has to be added in all sharp corners to ensure easy flow of material
