DELRIN | POM H
Available formats: Bars, Tubes, and Plates
Delrin H (POM-H) is a homopolymer acetal that has exceptional slip properties and good wear resistance. Compared to POM-C, POM-H has a slightly higher density, hardness and strength due to its greater crystallinity.
In addition, POM-H offers good electrical insulation and exceptional machining characteristics, which makes Delrin H acetal one of the most versatile engineering materials currently available.
Applications
When comparing Delrin C and Delrin H, the Delrin or POM-H homopolymer combines greater fatigue and creep resistance with greater overall strength and greater tensile strength and stiffness, allowing for a thinner part design and light, and the potential for lower cost of production of parts.
A fundamental characteristic of DELRIN H is its resistance, it is a rigid, firm and hard material, it has good sliding and friction properties and very good electrical insulation. Other properties include:
- high mechanical strength
- good tribological properties
- electrical insulator
- hard to paste
- good chemical resistance
- good machinability
- easy to polish
- not resistant to hot water above 60ºC
It is used in the following industries:
- Mechanical Engineering
- Food Industry
- electronics
- Aeronautical and aerospace technology
- Automotive
