Comparing Copolymer Acetal and Homopolymer Acetal in Round rods or sheets and plate

Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It is simple to turn, although it does require reduced speeds. I use this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased many items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. Smaller parts always ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are exceptionally durable and easily machinable, as they have comparable physical properties. They do look similar, but in practical uses there are some differences that can make one preferable than the other. It also depends on your application. As with all plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the desired properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is probably our best material for machining,as it gives an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is important. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, durability and strength, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has numerous applications and is especially of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval and its excellent sliding abilities which help 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 durability. It offers solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for sheet Acetal 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.
