BuyPlastic Black Delrin Acetal Copolymer Rod 1/4″ Diameter x 1 ft Nominal Length

This rod of Black Acetal Copolymer (Delrin) has a 1/4″ diameter. Its ACTUAL LENGTH is 11.8″, due to the cutting kerf. Material Information Acetal copolymer, also known as Delrin and polyoxymethylene (POM-C), is a highly crystalline thermoplastic renowned for its high mechanical strength, stiffness, and excellent dimensional stability. It stands out for its low friction coefficient and outstanding wear resistance, making it ideal for precision parts requiring high durability and low maintenance. Acetal copolymer is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including many solvents, which enhances its applicability in the automotive and consumer electronics industries for gears, bearings, bushings, and electrical components. Unlike its homopolymer counterpart, POM-C exhibits improved thermal stability and resistance to hydrolysis, making it suitable for hot water applications and environments with fluctuating temperatures. Its ease of machining and ability to maintain tight tolerances after processing contribute to its widespread use in mechanical and engineering applications. Additionally, acetal copolymer’s low moisture absorption ensures consistent performance in both wet and dry environments. This combination of properties makes acetal copolymer a preferred material for engineers and designers looking for reliability and precision.
