Polyoxymethylene, commonly referred to as acetal. It is a formaldehyde-based, semi-crystalline engineered thermoplastic which serves as an alternative for metals offering high mechanical strength and rigidity as well as good sliding characteristics and outstanding wear resistance. Acetal comes in two different chemical compositions: Copolymer, Acetal – C and homopolymer, Acetal – H. Homopolymers also have higher crystallinity levels and better short-term mechanical properties (stiffness, tensile strength, impact resistance and initial creep resistance). Copolymer grades have better oxidation resistance and exhibit better resistance to creep.

Polyphenylene sulfide is a resin bonded polymer coating with outstanding resistance to chemical reactivity and thermal degradation. Combined with PTFE, PPS produces a hybrid coating that can be applied to substrate with low coefficient of friction and good wear resistance. PPS is a partially crystalline, high-temperature performance polymer that has a high melting point of approximately 2800C, strong chemical resistance and is inherently flame retardant.
