Comparing Acetal Copolymer and Dupont Delrin in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod

Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It’s easy to turn, although it requires slow speeds. I have used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased many items from iPlastic. The small parts always ship quickly and everything is always well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are exceptionally tough and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They appear the same, but for practical uses there are some differences that may make one better than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with any plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the appropriate properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is probably our primary material for machining,as it gives an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a very low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is important. Acetal Sheet has the perfect combination of high mechanical strength, durability and strength, giving it superb sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many uses and is especially valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval and its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet is one of the plastics used within the automotive industry because of its long term dimensional stability and durability. It delivers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Pomalux is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal quite because the low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
