Dupont Delrin is the perfect plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s simple to turn, however it does require reduced speeds. I’ve used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered numerous items from Industrial Plastic. The smaller parts always ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are very durable and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They appear similar, but in practical use there are a few differences that may make one better than the other. It also depends on your application. As with all 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 probably our primary material for machining,giving an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very 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, hardness and strength, giving it superb sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has numerous uses and is especially of value 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 Sheet is one of the engineering plastics used within the automotive industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and durability. It offers solutions for designers to help them produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Acetal Sheet is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal well because the low moisture absorption results in components that won’t expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
