Material
POM is a stiff, low-friction plastic. We machine it into precise, wear-resistant parts.
Overview
POM is a stiff, low-friction plastic. We machine it into precise, wear-resistant parts.
POM (Acetal, also called Delrin) is a stiff engineering plastic. It has very low friction and great dimensional stability.
Computer-controlled mills and lathes cut a solid block into a precise part.
Tight-tolerance parts for prototypes or production, finished to your drawing.
Specifications
Typical reference values for POM (Acetal) through cnc machining. Final numbers can vary with grade and part shape.

Values are typical reference data and may vary with grade, heat treatment, and part geometry. Tell us your needs and we will confirm exact specs.
Why POM
Smooth and self-lubricating.
Holds tight tolerances.
Long life for moving parts.
Absorbs almost no water.
Material Options
We stock common grades. Tell us your need and we will pick the right one.
Tougher, balanced grade.
Stiffer, harder grade.
Glass-filled for strength.
How It Works
From your file to a finished part in five clear steps. Start with a free quote.
Upload your STEP or STL file and drawings. Get a clear, factory-direct quote with free DFM feedback, usually within 24 hours.
Our engineers check wall thickness, tolerances, and features. We suggest changes that save cost and improve quality.
We cut your part from a solid block with mills and lathes in our machine shop.
We remove burrs, then apply the finish you need, such as polishing or plating.
We measure and inspect each part, then pack and ship worldwide with full tracking.
Applications
Low-friction moving parts.
Quiet, smooth guides.
Chemical-proof parts.
Precise, durable items.
Design Tips
New to this process? These simple rules help your part turn out well and cost less.
Keep walls thick enough to stay rigid. Thin areas can vibrate and warp during cutting.
Tight tolerances cost more. Only specify them where the function needs them.
Small chamfers and radii help tools last longer and parts look cleaner.
Finishes
The natural milled surface. Good for most functional parts.
A smoother, brighter surface for looks or low friction.
Nickel, chrome, or other coatings for corrosion or wear protection.
A chemical treatment that boosts corrosion resistance on some metals.
