Engineering Plastics: Acetal (POM)

Acetal (POM-C) is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with good dimensional stability and frictional properties. It contains high mechanical strength, toughness and provides an ease of machining not present in other plastics. Acetal is primarily for customers in which precision componentry with small tolerances are of importance. In contrast to Nylon, Acetal provides very low moisture absorption, making it a necessity for applications within a submerged or wet environment. This is due to its ability for mechanical properties to be maintained through wet or harsh environments. Chemically resistant, Acetal is also a great choice for corrosive conditions. With our workshop in Brisbane (QLD), Tynic is able to machine components efficiently and with minimal tolerances.
