Compare and contrast POM H and POM C acetals in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod

Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a machine lathe. It’s very easy to turn, although it requires reduced speeds. I’ve used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased countless items from iPlastic. Small pieces always ship promptly and everything is always well packed. I have never had an issue with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are incredibly durable and easily machinable, and they have very similar physical properties. They do look similar, but for practical use there are a few differences that can make one preferable 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 appropriate properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our primary material for machining,giving an nice 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 perfect combination of high mechanical strength, durability and strength, giving it superb sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has numerous uses and is particularly of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval in addition to its excellent sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best 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 produce long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Pomalux is in water 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.
