Uses for Delrin
<< < (3/9) > >>
Brass_Machine:
Yup. Read through that process quite a bit. In fact, that was the thread that prompted me to try it. I have bought the delrin, just haven't gotten around to it yet.
Swarfing:
I find i do have better success with using Acetol. It is a pain to using a tap on it as it takes a lot of back and forth to cut.
andyf:
I thought Delrin was a trade name for a variety of acetal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyoxymethylene
though that's only Wikipedia and the phrase "slightly different formulas" may be more significant than it appears at first glance.

Swarfing:
You are correct but i have both Acetal and Delrin. I found that the Acetal has more slide quality and looking at the specs on line found you can get all sorts of grades. The Acetal i have originally came from a company that makes replacement hip joints.

Chuck.
Over here, the supermarket shopping trolleys need a £1 coin inserted, to release from their storage area. The coin is released on the trolley's return, after use.

Many people have a coin size, (and weight), replica, attached to their key ring.

I make around 20 per year of my lightweight version, and give them away.......
