How to compare Copolymer Acetal and Dupont Delrin Homopolymer in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod
Dupont Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a machine lathe. It is simple to turn, but it does require slow speeds. I’ve used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought countless items from Industrial Plastic . The smaller parts always ship promptly and everything was well packed. I have never had a problem with an order. Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are exceptionally tough and easily machinable, as they have comparable physical properties. They look the same, but in practical uses there are a few differences that may make one better 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 definitely our primary material for machining,giving an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the preferred grade for food contact and...
