Usa Industrials BULK-PS-AC-119 Acetal Plastic Bar

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-AC-119 is a solid acetal (POM) plastic bar stock cut to 48 inches in length with a 1 inch square cross-section in a natural color finish. Acetal is a semi-crystalline engineering thermoplastic known for its high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability. This bar stock is used for machining, fabrication, and custom part production across industrial, mechanical, and trade applications. At 0.61 pounds, it is lightweight relative to its size and handles well during cutting, drilling, and milling operations.

This acetal bar is suited for applications requiring a machinable plastic with low moisture absorption and good wear resistance. Common uses include bushings, spacers, wear pads, slide components, and structural support elements in mechanical assemblies. It is appropriate for use in plumbing, fluid handling, food-grade machinery, and general industrial fabrication where metal replacement or corrosion resistance is needed. Fabricators, machinists, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this bar stock.

Key Features

• Acetal (POM) material provides high stiffness and low friction for wear-prone applications
• 1 inch square cross-section allows direct machining without additional sizing
• 48 inch length provides ample stock for multiple parts per bar
• Natural color finish is consistent with unfilled, unmodified acetal stock
• Low moisture absorption supports dimensional stability in wet or humid environments

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose acetal bar stock suitable for machining into custom components across industrial, mechanical, and trade fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

This bar stock is intended for fabrication use by machinists and maintenance technicians. Standard metal-cutting tools including band saws, milling machines, lathes, and drill presses are appropriate for working acetal. Secure the bar firmly before cutting or drilling to prevent movement. Acetal produces fine chips during machining - use appropriate eye protection and chip management practices.
