Description

Acetal Sheet is a versatile engineering plastic ideal for machining. It is food compliant and suitable for various applications including marine and medical use.

Material Properties

The Acetal Sheet is made from Polyoxymethylene Copolymer, known for its high stiffness, tensile strength, and surface hardness. It offers superior resistance to hydrolysis, strong alkalis, and thermal-oxidative degradation compared to other variants.

Machining Benefits

Acetal Sheet is easier to machine than nylon, producing minimal burrs and allowing for a smooth finish. It can be machined quickly with less operator input, making it economical for production.

Moisture Resistance

This material absorbs very little moisture, reducing the risk of distortion during machining and ensuring stability in damp environments, making it suitable for marine applications.

Food Safety

The natural grade of Acetal Sheet is food contact safe, preventing bacteria formation and making it ideal for food preparation and production environments.

Low Friction Characteristics

Acetal Sheet exhibits low friction, allowing components to slide easily without sticking, which is essential for delicate instruments requiring smooth operation.
