Analyzing differences amoung Dupont Delrin and Acetal Copolymer in Sheet and Rods

Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It is simple to turn, however it requires slower speeds. I have used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought many items from Industrial Plastic. The smaller pieces always ship promptly and everything was well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are incredibly tough and easily machinable, as they have very comparable physical properties. They look similar, but for practical use there are some differences that may make one better than the other. It also depends on your application. As with all plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the applicable properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our primary material for machining,as it gives an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty low moisture absorption making it the preferred grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has the perfect combination of high mechanical strength, durability and strength, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless applications and is especially of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval in addition to its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best of the plastics used within the automotive industry because of its long term dimensional stability and toughness. It provides 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 won’t expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
