POM C Polyacetal Rods POM C Polyacetal Rods POM C Polyacetal Rods
Polyacetal Rods with 10% PTFE Filler
Key Features:
Our Polyacetal (POM-C) rods with 10% PTFE filler are engineered to enhance sliding friction properties, offering improved material performance. The PTFE is uniformly dispersed within the POM-C copolymer, resulting in an elevated coefficient of slide friction, enhanced abrasion resistance, and reduced sensitivity to stick-slip effects.
Noteworthy Attributes:
- Excellent creep strength and dimensional stability.
- Blue color ideal for food manufacturing applications.
- Resistant to cleaning agents with high toughness.
- Provides effective electrical insulation.
- Good machinability and superior slide and wear properties.
Applications:
These POM-C Polyacetal rods find versatile applications, particularly in industries such as food manufacturing, where the blue color is a preferred choice. The material’s resistance to cleaning agents, high toughness, and excellent electrical insulation make it suitable for various uses. Despite its challenging bonding nature, it remains an ideal choice for applications requiring reliable slide and wear properties.
