What the difference between POM H and POM C acetals in Sheet and Rods

Homopolymer Acetal or Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s very easy to turn, however it does require slower speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have purchased numerous items from a plastic shop in Anaheim. Small pieces always ship promptly and everything has been well packed. I have never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are exceptionally tough and easily machinable, as they have comparable physical properties. They look the same, but for practical uses there are a few differences that can make one better than the other. It also depends on your application. As with all plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the desired properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is probably our primary material for machining,as it gives an nice finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a pretty low moisture absorption making it the ideal grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is critical. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, durability and toughness, giving it excellent sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many uses and is especially valued in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it gained Food & Drug Administration approval along with its excellent sliding abilities which help with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheet stock, perhaps the best of the plastics used within the automotive industry because of its long lasting dimensional stability and toughness. It delivers solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Sustarin C is in marine applications. This environment suits Acetal quite because the low moisture absorption will result in components that won’t expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
