CNC Machining for Delrin (POM) Parts
Delrin offers high wear resistance, low friction, and overall durability and toughness
Delrin plastic is an acetal homopolymer with excellent durability. Its high wear resistance combined with excellent creep and warp resistance make it a good material option for mechanical components and industrial products.
We offer two grades of machined Delrin:
- Delrin 150
- Delrin 570 (20% Glass Filled)
