Plastic Rod: Acetal, 5' Long, 3" Dia, Blue MPN:5034745

Acetal plastic rod is an ideal product for customers seeking strong yet lightweight material with good wear and chemical resistance at a competitive cost point when compared to other engineering thermoplastics like nylon or polycarbonate. This particular grade (GD&T dimensions 5ft long, 3inch diameter) exhibits stiffness and low coefficient of friction, making it suitable for machining, gears, bearings, screw-threaded elements among other manufacturing tasks. Its heat deflection temperature is above boiling water level making it an ideal fit for applications involving steam or water exposure without delaminating, swelling or softening while ensuring rigidity at high temps below 150F (67C) The plastic material conforms to US food contact and safety standards for various sectors such as packaging, food processing equipment or pharmaceuticals. Its USA origin ensures adherence to stringent quality control measures that cater to the industry's high reliability expectations.
