Comparing Acetal Copolymer and Dupont Delrin in Round rods or sheets and plate
Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s pretty easy to turn, however it does require slower speeds. I’ve used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought countless items from iPlastic. The small parts usually ship promptly and everything is always 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, as they have very similar physical properties. They look similar, but for practical use there are a few differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with all 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 choice material for machining,as it gives an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got 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, hardness and toughness, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless uses and is certainly of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval and its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best of the engineering plastics chosen within the auto industry because of its long term dimensional stability and durability. It provides solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal well because its low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
