I think Nylon breaks down in etchant atleast it is not recommended
for use with Ferric Chloride that I use, not sure about other
etchant types.

There is United States Plastic Corp. they have some Plastic screws
and bolts but not a wide selection I don't think. www.usplastic.com
or just do a search for Plastic Screws or bolts.
