Original YKK hardware is reliability and high quality from Japan!
Accessories have a wide scope of application, they are indispensable for manufacturers of clothes, bags and equipment. It is used for attaching belts and slings, adjusting them, installing fasteners, etc. YKK plastic hardware is the best choice for those manufacturers who value strength, reliability, ease of use and practical design.
Why is YKK hardware the best?
The Japanese company YKK uses the highest quality materials and alloys in the production of its products. The most common is acetal (also known as polyoxymethylene or POM).
A detailed description of the materials and how to see it for each product – see the example below.
Polyacetal (POM) Acetal is YKK’s main raw material for the production of most types of plastic fittings. It is a crystalline thermoplastic polymer material characterized by excellent tensile strength, stiffness, surface hardness, resistance to solvents and abrasive effects.
The physical properties of this plastic remain unchanged over a wide range of temperatures, relative humidity and weather conditions.
The recommended short-term temperature range of its use is from -40°C to +130°C.
Nylon 6 and 6.6 Nylon is a crystalline thermoplastic polyamide resin that has good tensile strength, chemical resistance, stiffness and flexibility.
On the other hand, nylon absorbs moisture easily. Its properties will change with changes in humidity. Tensile strength will be lower and impact strength will be higher with higher moisture absorption.
Tough-Polyacetal (T-POM) is an impact-resistant polyacetal. T-POM retains excellent tensile strength, stiffness, surface hardness, stability, chemical resistance and impact strength. This material can fill the gap between conventional POM and nylon resin.
PC Polycarbonate is a thermoplastic resin with good transparency. It is strong, with good dimensional stability and outperforms other engineering plastics in terms of impact strength. But polycarbonate is inferior to the above-mentioned materials in terms of chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, and especially organic solvents, such as: isopropyl alcohol, kerosene, nitroethane, benzene, and others.
It is recommended for products that require strength and transparency.
The recommended short-term temperature range of its use is from -40°C to +130°C.
TPE is a thermoplastic elastomer that has a block interpolymerization structure consisting of soft and hard segments.
TPE provides good flexibility, impact toughness and strength at both low and high temperatures.
The recommended short-term temperature range of its use is from -40°C to +130°C.
Polypropylene (PP) Polypropylene is a thermoplastic resin with good chemical resistance. It is lighter than most polymers, due to which it is able to stay on the water surface.
Polypropylene has a lower tensile strength and may shrink to some extent after injection molding.
The recommended temperature range is from -35°C to +65°C.
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) ABS plastic is a thermoplastic resin polymerized from acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene. Has good transparency and chemical resistance. It has good stiffness and hardness. The recommended operating temperature range is from -40 to +70°C.
PBT resin PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) is a thermally modified plastic that is mainly composed of terephthalic acid and acid and butylene glycol.
Products made of this type of plastic have excellent characteristics of protection against abrasion and wear, as well as excellent dimensional stability. But they are vulnerable to strong acid and strong alkali.
The recommended operating temperature range is from -20 to +160°C.

YKK fittings have a wide range of applications in the sewing industry.
Fastex YKK are actively used for sewing clothes, shoes, sports and tactical equipment, they are used for quick connection and disconnection of belts on bags, backpacks, suitcases, banana bags and other products. Fasteks are easy and convenient to use, unfasten without much effort with one hand movement.
Frames and half rings are installed on bags, backpacks, belts, etc., to prevent twisting of the belt webbing and to adjust the end of the fixed belt.
Two-slot and three-slot buckles have become an indispensable part of the equipment. Double-slot buckles are ideal for installing on bags, backpacks, belts, actively used in goods for hiking, traveling, camping, cycling, fishing. Three-slot buckles are used on shoulder straps of backpacks, bags, ties, etc.
In addition, the PIM accessories company offers other YKK plastic accessories, snap hook as – carabiners, fasteners, tips, clamps and others.
YKK hardware is quality from the world’s best manufacturer.
All products are original, have YKK certificates for compliance with ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO45001, OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100, bluesign system. If you want to buy wholesale plastic accessories from a reliable partner, choose the PIM accessories company.
