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

Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It is very easy to turn, but it requires reduced speeds. I’ve used this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought many items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. Small parts usually ship promptly and everything is always well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are very durable and easily machinable, and they have similar physical properties. They do appear similar, but in practical uses there are some differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with any plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the desired properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is probably our primary material for machining,as it gives an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a very low moisture absorption making it the ideal grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is important. Acetal Sheet has the best combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and toughness, giving it superb sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless uses and is particularly valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval along with its superb sliding abilities which help with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet is one of the engineering plastics used 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 Sustarin C is in marine 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.
