What the difference between Dupont Delrin and Acetal Copolymer in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod
Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s easy to turn, but it requires slower speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered many items from iPlastic . Small parts always ship quickly and everything is always well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order. Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are exceptionally tough and easily machinable, and they have very similar physical properties. They appear similar, but in practical uses there are a few differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with all plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the applicable properties you may need for your application. Our Acetal Sheet is probably our choice material for machining,as it gives an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty low moisture absorption making it the preferred grade for food contact and wher...
