Polymer Fasteners and Components used in the Motorsport Industry

Motorsport components face heat, vibration, mechanical loads, and exposure to fuels, oils, and cleaning chemicals. Reducing weight while maintaining reliable performance is essential, making engineering polymers valuable options for selected fastening, insulating, and precision applications.

Explore our PEEK, PEEK GF30, POM, and PPS fasteners and components for motorsport equipment and vehicle assemblies. PEEK combines mechanical strength, heat resistance, and resistance to many automotive fluids. PEEK GF30, reinforced with 30% glass fiber, offers increased stiffness and resistance to deformation under sustained loads, helping supports, spacers, and fasteners maintain their dimensions.

POM, also known as acetal, provides low friction, good wear resistance, and dimensional stability for bushings, guides, and precision fittings operating at moderate temperatures. PPS offers high-temperature stability, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation for suitable applications near heat sources and within electrical assemblies.

From screws, nuts, and washers to custom machined parts, polymer components can help reduce weight and avoid metal corrosion. Material selection should match the operating temperature, fluid exposure, and fastening loads of each application.
