Analyzing differences among POM H and POM C acetals in Sheet and Rods
Homopolymer Acetal or Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It is very easy to turn, but it does require slower speeds. I have used this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered many items from Industrial Plastic. Smaller parts always 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 incredibly tough and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They appear the same, 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, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the applicable properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our choice material for machining,as it gives 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 critical. Acetal Sheet has the best combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and strength, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless applications and is certainly 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 stock, perhaps the best of the engineering plastics used within the automotive 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 Tecaform AH is in boating applications. This environment suits acetal quite because its low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
