Why you may choose either POM H and POM C acetals in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod
Dupont Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It is simple to turn, but it requires slow speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered countless items from iPlastic. Small pieces always ship promptly and everything has been well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are incredibly durable and easily machinable, as they have very similar physical properties. They do appear the same, but in practical use there are some differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends on your application. As with all 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,as it gives an excellent 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 important. 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 numerous applications and is certainly valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval in addition to its excellent sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best of the plastics used within the automotive industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. It delivers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Acetal Sheet is in moisture 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.
