Black Acetal Rod Uk
Low coefficient of friction good abrasion resistance and dimensional stability make it suitable for machining as per nylons having much lower moisture absorption.
Black acetal rod uk. Acetal pom c black rod 200mm dia x 1mtr long. 1 865 53 inc gst. Acetal plastic is available in extruded rod and sheets for machined parts. Acetal rods which are available in white or black is probably our best plastic for machining giving an excellent finish on both manual and cnc machines.
Acetal rod available in black blue and natural options. Natural off white or black dark grey to cater for different project requirements. Acetal copolymer pom has high strength and rigidity. Delrin is naturally opaque white due to its high crystalline composition but it is also available in black.
Our acetal copolymer is the only porosity free acetal product available today and is fda compliant when purchased in white rod sheet and tube or black rod and tube. Acetal rod is probably our best machining engineering plastic available from 6mm to 250mm in diameter. Interstate plastics carries sheet grades of copolymer acetal that are readily machined with standard machining practices. The material has a number of benefits including low moisture absorption and good machinability acetal can be machined using a high speed cnc and leaves fewer machine marks and a smooth finish.
Acetal round rod also referred to as round bar is available in two colours. It is the preferred grade for food contact as it has very low moisture absorption. Acetal has good machinability ensuring a smooth surface finish can be achieved and it has good corrosion resistance properties. Rods are available in diameters ranging from 10mm to 200mm.
Acetal is available in natural white blue or black and we can offer a range of thicknesses and lengths. Why should you choose this material its a high performance easily machine able engineering plastic. The acetal rod is a high strength temperature resistant highly crystalline thermoplastic with a high melting point. The material is processed according to the granule suppliers guidelines.
This is produced in sheet form as well as rods. Acetal copolymer is more resistant against hydrolysis strong alkalis and thermal oxidative degradation and offers slightly improved chemical resistance than our homopolymer acetal delrin grade. The raw material granules used meet the requirements of fda 21cfr 177 2470 for repeated food contact this only applies to the colours the black is non fda compliant.
