Product Description

 Polyacetal (POM)

Polyacetal, also known as Polyoxymethylene (POM), is one of the most widely used thermoplastics globally, particularly in precision engineering. It is known for its high strength, rigidity, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability.

POM is available in various forms, including sheets, rods, and tubes, making it highly versatile across industrial sectors. It is suitable for continuous use in water up to 80°C, which makes it popular in food processing and machinery components like gears, bearings, and bushings.

Shamsh Azadi Company provides high-quality POM products and services including cutting, machining, and turning of engineering plastics.


Key Properties of Polyacetal

  • High wear resistance

  • Excellent mechanical strength

  • High heat resistance

  • Electrical insulation properties

  • Impact resistance at elevated temperatures

  • Low friction coefficient

  • Minimal water absorption

  • Good resistance to chemicals and solvents


Advantages of POM

  1. Superior Wear Resistance: Ideal for sliding components.

  2. High Dimensional Stability: Maintains form under mechanical stress.

  3. Thermal Resistance: Performs well under prolonged heat exposure.

  4. Excellent Machinability: Suitable for CNC operations and complex parts.

  5. Electrical Insulation: Widely used in electrical systems.

  6. Low Friction & Noise: Perfect for gear and conveyor systems.

  7. Low Water Absorption: Performs reliably in humid or wet environments.


Applications of Polyacetal

POM and its copolymers are excellent for:

  • Precision gears

  • Bearings and bushings

  • Valve components

  • Electrical connectors

  • Automotive fuel system parts

  • Food processing equipment

  • Conveyor system parts

It can be processed using standard thermoplastic techniques such as injection molding and extrusion.
