Custom Delrin® Washers

When precision and durability are required, custom Delrin washers by Jaco Products stand out as the superior choice. Delrin, a thermoplastic polymer, is renowned for its high strength, resilience, and performance across a wide range of applications.

Delrin washers are small, disc-shaped components made from polyoxymethylene (POM), commonly known as Delrin. This synthetic polymer is engineered for its high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability. Delrin washers play a crucial role in providing secure, wear-resistant spacing for assemblies, reducing metal-on-metal contact and enhancing the longevity of machine components.

Delrin’s properties make it an exceptional material for manufacturing washers:

Delrin’s high tensile strength and impact resistance make it ideal for demanding environments.

It performs consistently in wet conditions, resisting swelling and hydrolysis.

Delrin stands up well against many solvents and chemicals, making it suitable for use in a variety of industrial applications.

With a low coefficient of friction and excellent heat resistance, Delrin washers function effectively across a broad temperature range. Their operating range is between -40°F and 200°F.

These characteristics ensure that Delrin washers provide reliable performance where other materials might fail.

Delrin washers are versatile components used in automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial machinery. Their durability and resistance properties make them particularly useful in applications requiring precision and longevity without the need for frequent replacements.

In the automotive industry, Delrin washers are used to reduce vibration and wear in moving parts. In consumer electronics, they provide insulation and spacing to prevent overheating in compact assemblies. Manufacturers favor Delrin washers for their ability to maintain integrity under mechanical stress and environmental exposure, which is critical in heavy machinery and equipment.
