Compare and contrast Acetal Copolymer and Dupont Delrin in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod
Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s simple to turn, but it requires slower speeds. I use this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased countless items from Industrial Plastic. Smaller parts usually ship quickly and everything was well packed. I have never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are exceptionally durable and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They do appear similar, but for practical use there are a few differences that can make one better than the other. It also depends on your application. As with any plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the applicable properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our best material for machining,as it gives an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a pretty 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, hardness and strength, giving it superb 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 helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval along with its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet is one of the plastics chosen within the automotive industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and toughness. It provides solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Tecaform AH is in moisture applications. This environment suits acetal well because its low moisture absorption will result in components that will not expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
