What the difference between Copolymer Acetal and Homopolymer Acetal in Round rods or sheets and plate

Image
Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It is pretty easy to turn, although it does require reduced speeds. I’ve used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought countless items from a plastic shop in Anaheim . Small pieces usually ship promptly and everything has been well packed. I have never had an issue with an order. Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are very durable and easily machinable, and they have very similar physical properties. They appear similar, but in practical use there are a few differences that can 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 applicable properties you may need for your application. Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our primary material for machining,giving an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty low moisture absorption making it the preferred...

Comparing Dupont Delrin and Acetal Copolymer in Round rods or sheets and plate

Homopolymer Acetal or Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It is pretty easy to turn, however it requires slow speeds. I’ve used this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered countless items from Industrial Plastic . The small parts always ship promptly and everything was well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order. Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are very durable and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They appear the same, but for practical uses 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, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the appropriate properties you may need for your application. Our Acetal Sheet is probably our best 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 ...
