high strength plastic screws

high strength plastic screws

(OP)
I am looking for high strength metric plastic screws. M6 and M4 hex.  It is easy to get moulded screws in Nylon 6/6 but if I want anything stronger like glass filled nylon or torlon I have to order in 1000s and 4-6 weeks lead time.
Anybody know of a supplier who would have something off the shelf?

RE: high strength plastic screws

Here is where we buy our general purpose plastic fasteners

We typical custom mold our special fasteners.  You might want to look into that if your quantities are high enough to pay off the mold cost.
