What the difference between Dupont Delrin and Acetal Copolymer in Round rods or sheets and plate
Dupont Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s simple to turn, although it requires reduced speeds. I use this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought countless items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. The small pieces always ship quickly 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 exceptionally durable and easily machinable, and they have comparable physical properties. They appear the same, but in practical uses there are some differences that can 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 best material for machining,giving an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty 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, hardness and toughness, giving it outstanding 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 gained Food & Drug Administration approval in addition to its superb sliding abilities which help with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheets are of the plastics chosen within the auto industry because of its long term dimensional stability and toughness. It offers 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 the low moisture absorption will result in components that will not expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
