Polyacetal
POM C / Polyacetal
High mechanical performance & low friction
POM C (polyoxymethylene copolymer) is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with high mechanical strength, stiffness and excellent sliding properties. Its low moisture absorption and dimensional stability make it a reference material for precision parts. It resists oils, solvents and dilute acids well. Certified for food contact.
