Reasons to choose Acetal Copolymer and Dupont Delrin in Sheet and Rods
Dupont Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It is very easy to turn, however it does require reduced speeds. I’ve used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased many items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. Small parts usually ship quickly and everything was well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are exceptionally tough and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They look the same, but in practical use there are a few differences that can make one preferable 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 desired properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is probably our primary 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 usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is important. Acetal Sheet has the perfect combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and strength, giving it superb sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless uses and is particularly valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval and its superb sliding abilities which help with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet is one of the engineering plastics chosen within the automotive industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. 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 well because the low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
