Delrin 150

Delrin 150, the most popular grade of Homopolymer POM, is engineered for high-load mechanical applications requiring maximum stiffness and strength. It offers superior impact resistance and fatigue endurance compared to standard acetal copolymers, making it the industry standard for precision gears, high-tension clips, and structural bushings. At Jucheng Precision, we specialize in the high-speed CNC machining of Delrin 150, delivering parts with exceptional surface finishes and tight dimensional tolerances. Whether you need a single functional prototype or a high-volume production run of automated components, our multi-axis CNC lathes and milling centers ensure your Delrin parts perform with low friction and long-term reliability.

Delrin 150 Machining Capabilities

Capacidad Descripción técnica Ventaja de Jucheng
High-Speed Gear Hobbing Milling precision spur, helical, and worm gears directly from Delrin 150 rod or plate stock. We achieve AGMA 10+ gear quality with exceptional tooth surface finish, ensuring silent operation and long wear life.
Automated Swiss Turning Utilizing bar-fed Swiss lathes to produce small-diameter pins, spacers, and bushings with rapid cycle times. Our 24/7 automated production lines offer the most competitive unit pricing for high-volume Delrin hardware (10,000+ pcs).
Snap-Fit & Clip Machining Taking advantage of Delrin’s high elasticity to machine functional snap-fit features and integral springs. Jucheng’s precision milling ensures that clips have the perfect “click” and retention force without material fatigue.
Mandrinado de tolerancia estricta Boring internal diameters with tolerances of +/- 0.02mm for press-fit bearings and assemblies. Our temperature-controlled machining environment prevents the thermal expansion issues common when machining plastics.

Fabrication Guidelines for Delrin 150

Centerline Porosity Awareness:
As a homopolymer, Delrin 150 can have small voids at the center of thick rods or plates. Consejo: For parts requiring gas-tight sealing or aesthetic perfection in the center, we recommend using POM-C or designing features away from the centerline.

Machinability Excellence:
Delrin is widely considered the “easiest” plastic to machine. Consejo: It produces small, clean chips and does not require complex deburring. We use high-speed steel or uncoated carbide tools with sharp edges for the best results.

Moisture & Stability:
Delrin has very low moisture absorption. Consejo: It is significantly more dimensionally stable than Nylon, making it the preferred choice for parts exposed to humid environments.

Expansión Térmica:
Like all plastics, Delrin expands more than metal. Consejo: We utilize “cool-cut” strategies and sharp tools to minimize heat transfer into the part during high-speed milling passes.
