Reasons to choose POM H and POM C acetals in Sheet and Rods

Homopolymer Acetal or Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It is easy to turn, but it does require slow speeds. I’ve used this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered many items from iPlastic. Smaller parts always ship promptly 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 very comparable physical properties. They appear the same, but in practical use there are a few differences that may make one better than the other. It also depends 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 probably our best material for machining,giving an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty low moisture absorption making it the preferred grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has the perfect combination of high mechanical strength, durability and toughness, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many uses 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 and its excellent sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best of the engineering plastics chosen within the automotive industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. It offers solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Pomalux is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal well because the low moisture absorption will result in components that will not expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
