thyssenkrupp Materials NA Canada offers DuPont™ Delrin® acetal homopolymer resin, a highly crystalline engineering thermoplastic that industry leaders specify for high load mechanical applications, such as gears, safety restraints, door systems, conveyor belts, healthcare delivery devices and components across a diverse range of products and industries.
Delrin® acetal (Polyoxymethylene POM) combines low friction and high wear resistance with the stiffness and strength needed in parts designed to replace metal. It provides a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to 120°C), good colorability and good mating with metal and other polymers, as well as dimensional stability in high precision molding.
When compared to acetal copolymer, Delrin® acetal homopolymer offers higher tensile strength, stiffness, and creep resistance, and significantly higher impact resistance, allowing for thinner and lighter part design, shorter molding cycles and the potential for cost reductions.
We offer extruded Delrin® acetal rods in 1” diameters and 12”, 24”, 36”, and 48” lengths. We also offer cut-to-size service to meet your custom length requirements. Delrin® acetal rods are available in natural color only.
