Comparing Copolymer Acetal and Homopolymer Acetal in Round rods or sheets and plate

Image
Homopolymer Acetal or Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a machine lathe. It’s pretty easy to turn, although it requires slower speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought many items from a plastic shop in Anaheim . The small pieces always ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I have never had a problem with an order. Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are very durable and easily machinable, and they have comparable physical properties. They appear similar, but for practical use there are some 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 appropriate properties you may need for your application. Our Acetal Sheet is probably our choice 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 ide...
