Dupont Delrin is the best plastic for turning on a CNC lathe lathe. It’s pretty easy to turn, but it requires slower speeds. I’ve used this stuff to make Scottish small pipes chanters. I have ordered numerous items from a plastic shop in Anaheim . Smaller parts usually ship quickly and everything has been well packed. I have never had a problem with an order. Between the Delrin and POM-C rods, both materials are incredibly durable and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They do look the same, but in practical uses there are a few differences that may make one better than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with any plastic materials, make sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the applicable properties you may need for your application. Our Acetal Sheet is probably our best material for machining,as it gives an excellent finish both on manual and CNC Machines. Its got a very low moisture absorption making it the ideal gra...
