Acetal

Acetal
Acetal provides high strength and stiffness coupled with enhanced dimensional stability and ease of machining. As a semi-crystalline material, acetal is also characterised by a low coefficient of friction and good wear properties, especially in wet environments.

Main advantages of acetal:

• high mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and toughness
• excellent resilience
• good creep resistance
• high impact strength, even at low temperatures
• good sliding properties and wear resistance
• easy to machine
• good electrical insulation
• physiologically inert

Acetal is available to buy online in sheet, rod and tube
