Compare and contrast Copolymer Acetal and Homopolymer Acetal in Round rods or sheets and plate

Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It’s pretty easy to turn, however it does require slower speeds. I have used this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased many items from iPlastic. The small parts always ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I’ve never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are exceptionally tough and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They look the same, but in practical uses there are some differences that can make one better 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 best material for machining,as it gives an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty 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 strength, giving it outstanding sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has countless applications and is particularly valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval and its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheets are of the engineering plastics chosen within the auto industry because of its long term dimensional stability and durability. It offers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in boating applications. This environment suits acetal well because the low moisture absorption will result in components that won’t expand or alter dimensions due to contact with water.
