Description
Acetal C Natural Rod is a high-performance engineering plastic suitable for various applications. Ideal for use in seals, gears, and medical instruments.
Material Properties
The Acetal C Natural Rod is made from Polyoxymethylene Copolymer, offering high stiffness, tensile strength, and surface hardness. It is more resistant to hydrolysis, strong alkalis, and thermal-oxidative degradation compared to Acetal H, making it a reliable choice for demanding environments.
Machining Advantages
Acetal Rod is known for its excellent machinability, outperforming all Nylons. It chips easily during machining, resulting in minimal burrs and a superior surface finish. This feature significantly reduces the need for de-burring, saving time and enhancing efficiency in production.
Food Compliance and Safety
This material is food compliant, making it suitable for applications involving food processing. Its low moisture absorption minimizes bacterial growth, ensuring safety in food-related environments.
Applications
Acetal C Natural Rod is versatile and can be used in various applications including seals, gears, marine components, insulators, medical instrument handles, steam cleaning equipment, bearings, and impellers.
