Nylon fastener

A non-magnetic, non-metallic securing device made of a material that has a low dielectric constant and relatively high tensile strength, enabling it to resist high voltage at commercial frequencies. It can also operate at continuous temperatures as high as 121°C. Any temperatures above has an effect to oxidize material. Electric and electronic equipment manufacturers are finding many corrosion-resistant applications for this type of fastener.
