Wear-Resistant Easy-to-Machine Delrin® Acetal Resin Sheets, Bars, and Strips


These sheets, bars, and strips resist expanding when exposed to heat and moisture, so they can be easily machined to close tolerances. They also have a naturally slippery, wear-resistant surface. Use them to make precision gears, bushings, and bearings. Delrin® acetal resin, also known as acetal homopolymer, is stronger and stiffer than acetal copolymer.
White sheets, bars, and strips are FDA compliant for contact with food.

Clear Impact-Resistant Polycarbonate Sheets and Bars


At only half the weight of glass, these polycarbonate sheets and bars are often used for windows, machine guards, instrument gauge covers, and signs. Polycarbonate is comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon. It has greater impact strength than Plexiglas® Acrylic and can be used in similar applications.
If you don't see the size you're looking for, please specify length and width under additional sheet sizes.
- Color: Clear

- Tensile Strength: 8,900-9,500 psi (Good)
- Impact Strength: 12-18 ft.-lbs./in (Excellent)
- Hardness: Rockwell R118 (Hard)
- For Use Outdoors: Yes
Clear Chemical-Resistant PVC Film

- Color: Clear
- Temperature Range: 15° to 140° F
- Tensile Strength: 2,680-3,400 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Rockwell R57 (Medium)
