Compare and contrast Dupont Delrin and Acetal Copolymer in Sheet and Rods
Dupont Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It is easy to turn, but it requires slower speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased many items from iPlastic. Small parts always ship quickly and everything was well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are very tough and easily machinable, as they have comparable physical properties. They do appear similar, but in practical uses there are a few 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 applicable properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is probably our choice material for machining,giving an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a very low moisture absorption making it the preferred grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, durability and toughness, giving it outstanding sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless 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 in addition to its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet is one of the engineering plastics used within the auto industry because of its long term dimensional stability and toughness. It delivers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in boating applications. This environment suits acetal well because the low moisture absorption will result in components that won’t expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
