Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a lathe lathe. It’s pretty easy to turn, although it requires slow speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have bought numerous items from Industrial Plastic . The smaller pieces usually ship promptly and everything is always well packed. I’ve never had a problem with an order.

They look the same, but in practical uses there are a few differences that may make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with all plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the desired properties you may need for your application. Our Acetal Sheet is probably our choice material for machining,as it gives an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. It has a very low moisture absorption making it the usual grade for food contact an...
