Delrin AF
Delrin AF
Delrin AF offers a higher limiting PV and has a lower coefficient of friction. This is due to the additional PTFE content. PTFE is fluorocarbon fibres uniformly dispersed in Delrin acetal resin. The addition of PTFE helps (typically) decrease the wear capability and impact strength. Delrin AF is available in different blends, from 12% upwards to full-strength 20%.
Most use scenarios are applications with bearings, bushings, cams and other antifriction devices that require toughness. Delrin AF presents a higher initial cost, however, the cost savings due to the elimination of costly lubricants and continuous maintenance make Delrin AF a budget effective choice.
