Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our best material for machining,as it gives an great finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a very low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, hardness and toughness, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It’s easy to turn, however it does require slow speeds. I’ve usedII have used this plastic to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased many items from iPlastic. The smaller parts always ship promptly and everything Acetal Copolymer has been well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order. Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are quite durable and easily machinable, and they have very similar physical properties. They do appear the same, but in practical use there are some differences that may make one better than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with any plastic materials, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the applicable properties you may require for your application.
