What the difference between Copolymer Acetal and Homopolymer Acetal in Sheet or Plate and Round Rod

Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It is simple to turn, but it requires slower speeds. I have used this material to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought numerous items from Industrial Plastic. Small parts usually ship promptly and everything is always well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.
Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are incredibly tough and easily machinable, as they have comparable physical properties. They do appear the same, but for practical use there are some differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends on your application. As with all plastic materials, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the appropriate properties you may need for your application.
Our Acetal Sheet is definitely our primary material for machining,as it gives an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a pretty low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact and where the dimensional stability is important. Acetal Sheet has an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, durability and toughness, giving it outstanding sliding properties, electrical insulation, and wear resistance.
Acetal Sheet has many applications and is especially of value in the food preparation industry. Because of its low moisture absorption it helped it to achieve Food & Drug Administration approval and its superb sliding abilities which aid with very low friction and hard wearing food safe components.
Acetal Sheets are of the engineering plastics used within the auto industry because of its long term dimensional stability and toughness. It provides solutions for designers to help them create long lasting and very durable components. Another popular area for Tecaform AH is in marine applications. This environment suits acetal quite because its low moisture absorption results in components that will not expand or change dimensions due to contact with water.
