Delrin Acetal

Delrin, a homopolymer acetal, is also manufactured and stocked in rod and plate. It offers slightly higher mechanical properties than Acetron® GP Acetal, but may contain a lower density center, especially in larger cross sections. Copolymer acetal also offers better chemical resistance than homopolymer acetal.

Acetal

Acetal provides high strength and stiffness coupled with enhanced dimensional stability and ease of machining. As a semi crystalline material, acetal is also characterized by a low coefficient of friction and good wear properties especially in wet environments. Because acetal absorbs minimal amounts of moisture, its physical properties remain constant in a variety of environments.
