Innovation
Where performance is key, designers choose Delrin®.
Successful design for engineering function combines ideas with attention to detail. This portal offers resources to support designers putting the distinct advantages of Delrin® to work in their next innovation.
Creating value through functional part design
Delrin® is typically specified for high-load mechanical applications and precision parts, where strength, stiffness, stability, and reliability are important. It is also used to improve performance in high-wear, high-friction applications.
Compared to acetal copolymers, Delrin® homopolymer offers higher fatigue and creep resistance as well as higher toughness and tensile properties. This enables thinner, lighter part design, and opportunities to reduce part production costs.
In addition to higher yields and faster throughputs during manufacture, the technical advantages of Delrin® can create significant value-in-use—for example, combining discrete components into one molding to decrease assembly operations, reduce complexity and improve recyclability.
