Description
Description
The Premium 25% Glass Filled Acetal C Rod offers enhanced strength compared to non-reinforced Acetal C, making it an ideal choice for various applications. The glass fibre reinforcement not only improves rigidity but also reduces the coefficient of thermal expansion while increasing the heat deflection temperature, optimizing its properties to levels comparable to metallic materials.
Key Features
- High rigidity (to -40 °C)
- High thermal stability
- High dimensional stability
- Low water absorption
- Excellent electrical insulating properties
- High strength and stiffness
- Very good sliding properties
- High resistance to solvents
- Very high resistance to stress cracks
Typical applications for this rod include components used in machinery engineering, which require materials that provide both durability and performance. For additional information on machined or finished components, please inquire further.
