Polyacetal is a thermoplastic polymer, which is produced by the polymerization of formaldehyde. It is a highly crystalline thermoplastic with characteristics such as high tensile strength, stiffness, low coefficient of friction and excellent dimensional stability. Polyacetal offers resilience and creep resistance, natural lubricity and can be used under wide temperature range. It offers a unique combination of properties not available with metals or other plastics and can be used for machining into gears, bushes and other engineering components for appliance, electronic, automotive, textile machinery and other applications.

Sizes:
Our range of polyacetal rods and sheets are available in following sizes:

Rods [ White ] : 6 MM OD - 6” OD;

• Length: 300 MM & 1000 MM

Rods [ Black ] : 12.5 MM OD – 5” OD;

• Length : 300 MM & 1000 MM

Sheets [ Black and White ] : 8 MM Thick – 75 MM

• Thick ; 300 x 300 MM; 300 x 600 MM; 600 x 1000 MM.

Polyacetal also known as Polyoxymethylene (POM) is a thermoplastic polymer manufactured by the polymerization of formaldehyde. It is a highly crystalline thermoplastic, charactererised by high tensile strength, stiffness, low coefficient of friction and excellent dimensional stability.

This polymer has high mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and creep resistance, and is resistant against thermal-oxidative degradation.

Polyacetal rods offer a unique combination of properties not available with metals or other plastics.

Characteristics of Polyacetal rods are:

• Fatigue endurance unmatched by other plastics
• High tensile strength, stiffness and impact strength
• Excellent resistance to moisture, gasoline, lubricants, solvents and many other neutral chemicals
• Excellent dimensional stability
• Resilience and Creep resistance
• Natural Lubricity
• Wide end use temperature range

 

Applications: Used for Gears, Bushes, Sprockets, Pulleys, Conveyor Chains, Rollers, Washers, Seals, Engineering Components for Appliance, Electronic, Automotive, Textile machinery etc.
