Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal, polyacetal, and polyformaldehyde, is an engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability.
POM is characterised by its high strength, hardness and rigidity to −40 °C. POM is intrinsically opaque white, due to its high crystalline composition, but it is available in all colours.
Temperature: -40°C to +105°C Density (g/cm3): 1.41 Flammability: HB Water absorption (%): 0.8
