Benefits of Torlon® Clip Nuts

Introducing Torlon® Composite Fasteners from Marketing Masters, Inc.

A series of lightweight, nonmetallic fasteners used to secure flooring, fairings, interior trim or any application where traditional metal clip nuts were previously used.

Additional Features & Benefits of Torlon® Clip Nuts

Eliminates Corrosion
Marketing Masters' composite fasteners will not scratch a structure's primer or plating during clip installation and/or removal and are not susceptible to corrosion. The result is the complete elimination of corrosion, whether it's caused by galvanic reaction, or environmental conditions. Additionally, MM composite clip nuts will not chafe or nick the structure's edges during screw installation. This will significantly reduce the many hours of labor and costly replacement procedures associated with corroded metal structures.

Outstanding Durability and Performance
Marketing Masters' clip nuts exhibit outstanding strength and durability due to high performance of the torlon plastic.. Unlike other unsuccessful attempts and concepts, our Torlon clip nuts employ the use of a floating metal nut, housed in a composite clip. This maintains the same thread strength found in traditional metal clip nuts, while maintaining .032" radial float of the metal nut; a feature usually reserved for more expensive, exotic metal clip nuts.

Another significant achievement in strength is the ability to withstand extremely high torque loads. The MM composite clip nuts will withstand torque loads in excess of 100-inch pounds. This is nearly double the design requirement of 60-inch pounds common to all traditional metal clip nuts.

Molded from High-Strength Torlon®
Marketing Master's corrosion-free composite clip nuts and non-metallic fasteners are made from Torlon, an innovative high-strength engineering polymer called polyamide-imide, from Solvay. Used over a wide range of industries the injection molded Torlon® parts meet a wide variety of design challenges, from components in the space shuttle, to parts in the engine of a world-class race car, to a myriad of other applications.

Torlon® resin is not just another plastic, but a unique chemical combination that out-performs all but the most exotic composites and polymers, and best of all, Torlon® resin can be injection molded. Torlon® is the only polymer that provides this combination of properties: strength competitive with metal across an extraordinary temperature range; toughness and modulus far greater than most polymers; passes FAA flammability tests and is unaffected by aviation fluids such as MEK, Tric 1,1,1, and Skydrol® hydraulic fluid.
