i need a bolt for powder coating process but the material should be electrically insulative and should resist 200 C temperature. because it needs to go in the oven after the implementation of the powder coating.???? Please help me out from this situation....????
Hi guy,you can use PTFE coating,which can be used around 260℃ continuously,the maximum would be 290-300℃。
You can get screws made from a high temp plastic like PEEK or PTFE. You can get them made from ceramic as well. http://www.mcmaster.com/#machine-screw-fasteners/=jbxqrz http://www.mcmaster.com/#machine-screw-fasteners/=jbxrlh
Yes,if there is no tough requirement about the strenghth,you can make this screw directory from PEEK or PTFE. As for ceramics,that would cost much?I have little experience about that
a ptfe screw will creep at even low loads. Peek, or PEI will work but will cost more than a steel screw, PEI (ULTEM) may be even more than titanium. In the US mcmaster sells ceramic bolts http://www.mcmaster.com/#ceramic-bolts/=jwndag
