Comparing Dupont Delrin and Acetal Copolymer in Round rods or sheets and plate
Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It is easy to turn, although it requires slow speeds. I’ve used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered countless items from Industrial Plastic. The smaller pieces always ship promptly and everything has been well packed. I have never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are incredibly durable and easily machinable, and they have similar physical properties. They appear the same, but for practical use 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 appropriate properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our choice material for machining,giving an excellent 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 important. Acetal Sheet has the perfect combination of high mechanical strength, durability and strength, giving it superb sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many applications and is certainly 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 help with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best of the engineering plastics used within the automotive industry because of its long term dimensional stability and toughness. It provides solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal quite because its low moisture absorption will result in components that won’t expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
