Polypropylene Nut

A polypropylene nut is a composite fastener with a number of advantages.

Structurally, it is a polypropylene cylinder with a metal insert installed inside. The insert has threads on its outer or inner side for screwing onto the connected element.

The nut is installed by hand or with hand tools. For this purpose, the polypropylene cylinder has a specially shaped flange.

Applications

Polypropylene nuts are used mainly in piping systems where a maximum-tightness connection between pipes is required.

Features

The nut has a composite design: the outer shell is made of polypropylene, while the inner part with the threaded connection is made of stainless metal. This design ensures a long service life under high humidity and significant temperature fluctuations.
