Category: Engineering Plastics, Laminates and Composites

Description

POM material, also called Acetal plastic, is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with high mechanical strength and rigidity. POM material has very good sliding properties, excellent wear resistance and low moisture absorption. The material’s dimensional stability, particularly good fatigue strength and excellent machinability make plastic POM a very versatile engineering material, especially for complex components.

  • Very good dimensional stability & sliding properties
  • High rigidity & hardness
  • Very easy to machine
  • Good impact resistance at low temperatures
  • Very low moisture absorption (0.8% at saturation)
  • Good creep resistance
  • Food safe
  • Colours: Natural or Black
  • Sheets: 10 mm to 100 mm thick
  • Rods from 20 mm to 250 mm diameter

Applications: Bearings, cams, gears, conveyor rollers, gear wheels, precision machined components.
