There are several reasons why plastic is often the preferred choice in the manufacturing of buckles. Plastic is less expensive than other materials used in buckles such as metals. It is lightweight, wear resistant, and impact resistant. Good plastic has great aesthetic value, it exhibits less roughness, no lubrication is required, it is corrosion resistant, can be used outdoors, it is odorless, it is recyclable, and its co-efficient of thermal expansion is low. When shopping for plastic buckles, more important than the price is ensuring that you are getting quality.

Our plastic buckles also come in many different sizes ranging from ½” to 2” as well as many different designs within our 6 major categories, depending on the specific buckle.
