- Did You Know?
Did you know
- when looking for a high-strength material
with enhanced dimensional stability and is
easy to machine - look to Acetal. Acetal
is known also as a low-coefficient of friction
and has very good wear properties especially
in wet environments. Acetal is ideally
suited for close-tolerance mechanical parts
and electric insulators which require
strength and stiffness. Because of its
make-up, Acetal has a low moisture rate and
offers a wide range of chemical resistance. |
