Analyzing differences amoung Copolymer Acetal and Homopolymer Acetal in Round rods or sheets and plate
Dupont Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It is pretty easy to turn, although it requires slower speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered countless items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. Smaller parts usually ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are incredibly durable and easily machinable, and they have very comparable physical properties. They look the same, but for practical uses there are some differences that can make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with all 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 probably our choice material for machining,giving an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has 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 excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless uses and is certainly of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval in addition to its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best of the engineering plastics used within the auto industry because of its long term dimensional stability and toughness. It offers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for sheet Acetal is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal well because the low moisture absorption will result in components that won’t expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
