A Nylok customer had a problem: the assembly point of his manufacturing process was a bottleneck. Workers were using plastic retaining washers to hold parts in place, a time-consuming operation. Nylok engineers responded with not only a new product, NYSTAY, but also with an entirely new process of assembly. The new process, made possible by NYSTAY, cut down on products and steps, and sped up assembly in dramatic fashion.
Nyloks patented temporary retention coating is designed to hold both threaded and unthreaded fasteners in place during transport or assembly. Non-toxic and soft enough to allow hand assembly, NYSTAY® is a cost-effective alternative to plastic retainer washers.
