Analyzing differences amoung Copolymer Acetal and Dupont Delrin Homopolymer in Sheet and Rods

Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a machine lathe. It’s pretty easy to turn, although it does require slower speeds. I use this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought many items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. Smaller pieces 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 quite tough and easily machinable, and they have very similar physical properties. They do look the same, but for practical uses there are some differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with all plastic materials, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the appropriate properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our choice material for machining,giving an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and toughness, giving it outstanding sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has numerous uses and is especially of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval along with its excellent 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 term dimensional stability and toughness. It delivers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Acetal is in water applications. This environment suits acetal well because its low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
