Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a machine lathe. It is very easy to turn, but it does require slow speeds. I have used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased many items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. The smaller parts usually 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, as they have similar physical properties. They appear the same, but for practical uses there are some differences that can make one better than the other. It also depends on your application. As with any plastic materials, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the desired properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our choice material for machining,as it gives an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the ideal grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has the perfect combination of high mechanical strength, durability and toughness, giving it outstanding sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many 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 and its superb sliding abilities which help 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 toughness. It provides solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for sheet Acetal is in water applications. This environment suits acetal well because its low moisture absorption results in components that won’t expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
