Plastic spacers are versatile fastening components designed to create precise gaps between components while offering electrical insulation, corrosion resistance, and lightweight properties. Crafted from high-performance polymers like nylon, polypropylene (PP), or polyethylene (PE), these spacers excel in applications where metal alternatives may cause conductivity or corrosion. Our company manufactures plastic spacers using advanced injection molding techniques, ensuring uniform wall thickness, precise thread profiles (if threaded), and consistent dimensional accuracy to meet global industry standards.
The manufacturing process of our plastic spacers begins with meticulous material selection based on application requirements. Nylon 6/6 is preferred for high tensile strength and heat resistance, while PTFE (Teflon) is used for chemical resistance in harsh environments. The injection molding process involves precise temperature and pressure control to eliminate voids and ensure material homogeneity. Post-molding, spacers undergo rigorous quality checks, including dimensional inspections, tensile strength testing, and dielectric breakdown testing (for electrical applications), to guarantee performance reliability.
Plastic spacers find extensive use in electronics (mounting PCBs to prevent short circuits), medical devices (providing sterile spacing), automotive interiors (securing trim panels), and food processing equipment (resisting chemical cleaners). Their non-conductive and non-magnetic properties make them ideal for sensitive electronic assemblies, while corrosion resistance suits coastal or marine applications. We offer plastic spacers in metric (M3-M10) and imperial (#4-40 to 1/4-20) sizes, with custom colors and lengths available to match regional design preferences and functional needs.
As a customer-centric manufacturer, we specialize in custom plastic spacer solutions. Clients can request specialized materials (e.g., flame-retardant ABS for electronics), unique head styles (dome, flat, countersunk), or integrated features like ribbed surfaces for enhanced grip. We support OEM projects with logo embossing and offer wholesale pricing for bulk orders, ensuring cost-effectiveness without compromising quality. Our products comply with international standards (UL, RoHS), facilitating seamless integration into global supply chains.
Choosing our plastic spacers means gaining a lightweight, corrosion-resistant solution that balances functionality with design flexibility. Whether for electrical isolation, medical device assembly, or automotive interior design, our spacers deliver reliable performance in diverse environments.
