Usa Industrials BULK-PS-ACB-255 Acetal Plastic Bar

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-ACB-255 is a black acetal (POM) plastic bar stock cut to a rectangular profile and suited for machining, fabrication, and structural component applications. Measuring 2 inches thick, 3 inches wide, and 48 inches long, this bar is produced porosity-free, which is critical wherever consistent density and machinability are required. Acetal is a high-strength engineering thermoplastic known for its dimensional stability, low moisture absorption, and resistance to solvents and fuels. This bar is commonly selected by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians who need reliable, consistent raw stock for precision-cut parts.

This acetal bar is appropriate for use across industrial, commercial, and mechanical service environments. Typical applications include the fabrication of bushings, wear pads, spacers, guide rails, rollers, and structural inserts where metal replacement materials are desired. The porosity-free construction makes it particularly well suited for fluid-handling components, food-processing equipment parts, and any application where voids or inclusions would compromise performance or surface finish.

Key Features

• Porosity-free acetal (POM) construction ensures consistent density throughout the bar
• Black color provides UV resistance and a clean finished appearance
• Rectangular profile simplifies clamping and fixturing during machining
• 48-inch length offers flexibility for multiple cuts from a single piece
• 2 inches thick by 3 inches wide cross-section supports a wide range of structural and wear-resistant part geometries

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose acetal bar stock suitable for use in CNC machining, manual milling, sawing, and turning operations across industrial fabrication and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Cutting and machining of acetal bar stock is typically performed by machinists or maintenance fabricators using standard metal-working or woodworking tools with appropriate speeds and feeds for thermoplastics. Secure the bar firmly in a vise or fixture before cutting to prevent movement. Acetal produces fine chips and dust during machining - use appropriate respiratory protection and follow shop safety protocols for plastic swarf disposal. No heat treatment or conditioning is required prior to use.
