ACETAL DELRIN

We stock both the homopolymer, Acetal Delrin, and the copolymer, Acetal.
Acetal Delrin and Acetal grades are dissimilar in that the former has improved mechanical properties whilst the Acetal grade has a superior resistance to alkalis.
Both grades are not suited to components that need to be liquid and gas proof. For such components, it is recommended to opt for Pet-P material.
