Acetal & Delrin® Rod

PAR Group is a leading name among acetal rod suppliers in the UK. We can supply an extensive range of grades and sizes, many of which are stocked at our warehouse in Manchester. Renowned for their exceptional machinability and resilience against impact and wear, acetal rods also have full approval for food contact, making them a preferred choice for precision components in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical sectors.

Here at PAR, we can machine acetal rods and create OEM components by utilising our CNC machining, cutting, routing, milling, and turning facilities. Please follow the links below for further information and availability for each grade.

Available Grades of Acetal & Delrin®

Acetal Rod
Acetal Rod 

Offers superior dimensional stability and durability compared to acetal homopolymer. Acetal copolymer has excellent resistance to hydrolysis and strong alkalis. It is non-toxic, making it a preferred choice for food contact applications. Temperature range of -40°C up to +90°C.
