Black Acetal Rod Uk
This is produced in sheet form as well as rods.
Black acetal rod uk. Acetal round rod also referred to as round bar is available in two colours. Natural off white or black dark grey to cater for different project requirements. Acetal plastic is available in extruded rod and sheets for machined parts. 1 865 53 inc gst.
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. 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. Low coefficient of friction good abrasion resistance and dimensional stability make it suitable for machining as per nylons having much lower moisture absorption. Acetal copolymer pom has high strength and rigidity.
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. Acetal has good machinability ensuring a smooth surface finish can be achieved and it has good corrosion resistance properties. It is the preferred grade for food contact as it has very low moisture absorption. Delrin is naturally opaque white due to its high crystalline composition but it is also available in black.
Any machining tool that is capable of high speed without vibration can be used. 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. Interstate plastics carries sheet grades of copolymer acetal that are readily machined with standard machining practices. Acetal is available in natural white blue or black and we can offer a range of thicknesses and lengths.
Acetal pom c black rod 250mm dia x 1mtr long. Acetal rod is probably our best machining engineering plastic available from 6mm to 250mm in diameter. Rods are available in diameters ranging from 10mm to 200mm. Acetal rod available in black blue and natural options.
The acetal rod is a high strength temperature resistant highly crystalline thermoplastic with a high melting point. Why should you choose this material its a high performance easily machine able engineering plastic. 976 21 inc gst pomr250 blk.
