Delrin®

The High-Performance Acetal Resin

Delrin® acetal homopolymer (Polyoxymethylene POM) is the ideal material in parts designed to replace metal. It combines low-friction and high-wear resistance with the high strength and stiffness such applications require. It provides a wide operating temperature range (-40 °C to 120 °C) and good colourability. Delrin® also mates well with metals and other polymers and offers excellent dimensional stability in high precision moulding.

Compared to acetal copolymer, Delrin® acetal homopolymer offers higher tensile strength, stiffness, creep and fatigue resistance, and significantly higher impact resistance. The combination of these excellent mechanical properties in a single material allows for thinner, lighter-weight parts and shorter moulding cycles with potential cost reductions.

Authentic Delrin® acetal homopolymer is also available in the forms of sheets, rods, and tubes.

Applications:

  • Gears
  • Safety restraint components
  • Door system components
  • Conveyor system components
  • Medical delivery devices
  • Ski bindings
  • Zip fasteners

Key Benefits

  • High fatigue resistance
  • High creep resistance
  • High toughness
  • High tensile strength and stiffness
  • Enables thinner, lighter part design
  • Offers potential for reducing part production costs
