Vendel N has high hardness and stiffness, with very good mechanical properties. It has excellent creep resistance and dimensional stability, which makes it ideal for machining of precision parts. The co-efficient of friction is low, and the dielectric properties are excellent. It has very good stick/ slip properties. The acetal copolymer is the ideal combination of strength, stiffness and wear resistance. It absorbs very little moisture, is easily machinable and is genuinely porosityfree, making it the preferred grade for food contact and medical applications. The product exhibits an elevated resistance to hydrolysis. Dimensional stability makes acetal extremely good for use with press fitted metallic bearings.
