Compare and contrast Copolymer Acetal and Dupont Delrin Homopolymer in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod
Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s very easy to turn, but it requires slower speeds. I’ve used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased countless items from Industrial Plastic . The smaller parts always ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I have never had an issue with an order. Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are incredibly durable and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They do look similar, 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 any plastic materials, be 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 nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the ideal grade for food contact an...
