ACETAL MACHINED PARTS

Gearing

When made of Acetal, gears are able to be used in a wider range of environments than metal gearing and last longer. Acetal gears can be used in wet or chemically exposed environments without rust or corrosion. Acetal gears also weigh less than metal counter parts and can reduce noise in your assembly.

Bushings & Bearings

Acetal bushings & bearings are high-strength and can be used to replace steel for their enhanced ability to absorb shock or to become a sacrificial part and not damage or destroy other parts of the assembly. Acetal is corrosion and chemically resistant and can be used in a greater range of environments than metal. Acetal can retain a tight tolerance in wet environments.

Star Wheel

Used in conveyor assembly's and bottling lines, star wheels are used to orient a product in a production line. Using acetal in this application will result in cost saving over a metal component, will not rust or corrode, and will weigh less than a metal component. Acetal is approved for food contact. Acetal will retain its tolerance and not rust in wet environments.

Vanes (Vaccum Pump)

Acetal's high-strength and dimensional stability along with it's low coefficient of friction make it a quality performer in vacuum pumps. Acetal has the ability to meet and retain tight tolerances due to it's moisture resistant properties.
