What the difference between Acetal Copolymer and Dupont Delrin in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod
Dupont Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It is easy to turn, although it requires reduced speeds. I have used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought numerous items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. The smaller pieces usually ship quickly and everything was well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are very durable and easily machinable, and they have very similar physical properties. They appear the same, but in 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, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the applicable properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our choice material for machining,giving an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has the best combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and strength, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless uses and is certainly valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval and its excellent sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet is one of the plastics chosen within the auto industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. It offers solutions for designers to help them produce 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 alter dimensions due to contact with water.
