Comparing POM H and POM C acetals in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod

Dupont Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a machine lathe. It’s easy to turn, but it requires slower 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 quickly and everything is always well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are very tough and easily machinable, and they have very similar physical properties. They do look similar, but in practical use there are some differences that may make one preferable 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 definitely our primary material for machining,giving an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a pretty low moisture absorption making it the ideal 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 outstanding sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has numerous uses and is especially valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval and its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheets are of the plastics chosen within the auto industry because of its long term dimensional stability and durability. It delivers solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Acetal is in moisture applications. This environment suits acetal well because its low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
