What the difference between Copolymer Acetal and Dupont Delrin Homopolymer in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod
Dupont Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It’s simple to turn, but it does require reduced speeds. I have used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased numerous items from Industrial Plastic. The small parts always ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I have never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are very tough and easily machinable, as they have comparable physical properties. They look similar, but in practical uses there are some differences that can 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 applicable properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our primary material for machining,as it gives an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a very 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 toughness, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many uses 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 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 engineering plastics chosen within the automotive industry because of its long term dimensional stability and toughness. It provides solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal quite because its low moisture absorption results in components that won’t expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
