Description
Delrin (Acetal Homopolymer)
Delrin is a high-strength, low-friction engineering plastic known for its excellent dimensional stability, wear resistance, and machinability. As an acetal homopolymer, Delrin outperforms standard acetal copolymers in strength and stiffness. It’s ideal for high-load, low-wear applications where precision and durability are essential. Delrin is commonly used as a metal replacement in mechanical parts and components.
