Description
Genuine Delrin® acetal homopolymer rod in white, from 20mm to 130mm diameter. Delrin is manufactured from Delrin® acetal resin. Compared with standard acetal copolymer it has higher mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and creep resistance, a lower thermal expansion rate and often better wear resistance – making it ideal for machined parts that benefit from extra strength and rigidity.
Why choose Delrin rod
- Higher mechanical strength, stiffness and hardness than acetal copolymer
- Excellent creep resistance for long-lasting performance
- Lower thermal expansion for dimensional stability
- Superior wear resistance for extended use
- Ideal for precision machining
- Normally in stock, with custom lengths available from 40mm

Delrin or acetal copolymer?
- Delrin (this rod) – choose it when a part needs the extra strength, rigidity and creep resistance of homopolymer acetal.
- Natural acetal copolymer rod – the standard acetal grade, in 50mm to 220mm.
- Black acetal copolymer rod – the usual alternative when you need black.

FAQ
Q: What is Delrin?
A: Delrin is an acetal homopolymer known for its high strength and rigidity.
Q: What sizes are available?
A: Delrin rod is available from 20mm to 130mm diameter. 20mm to 36mm comes in 3000mm lengths, 40mm to 80mm in 1000mm or 3000mm lengths, and 100mm to 130mm in 1000mm lengths.
Q: Is black Delrin available?
A: Black Delrin can be made to order, subject to minimum order quantities – please get a quote. Black acetal copolymer rod is available as a ready alternative.
Q: Do you have smaller diameters?
A: For diameters under 20mm, acetal copolymer rod is the usual alternative. Please get a quote.
Q: Can I get a custom length?
A: Yes, for 40mm to 130mm diameter. Use the cut-to-size calculator on this page for an instant price on any length from 50mm up to 1000mm. For anything longer, choose a full 3000mm bar (40mm to 80mm). 20mm to 36mm is supplied in full 3000mm lengths only.
