What the difference between Copolymer Acetal and Homopolymer Acetal in Sheet and Rods
Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s easy to turn, however it requires reduced speeds. I’ve used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered countless items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. The small parts always ship promptly and everything has been well packed. I have never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are exceptionally tough and easily machinable, and they have comparable physical properties. They appear similar, but in practical use there are a few differences that may make one better 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 appropriate properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is probably our primary material for machining,as it gives an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a very low moisture absorption making it the preferred grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is important. Acetal Sheet has the best combination of high mechanical strength, durability and toughness, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless applications and is certainly valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval in addition to its excellent sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheets are of the engineering plastics used within the automotive industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. It provides solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in boating applications. This environment suits acetal quite because its low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
