POM-C (polyoxymethylene copolymer)

POM-C (polyoxymethylene copolymer) is a high-performance technical plastic used in many small mechanical engineering applications due to its excellent mechanical and chemical properties.

Chemical composition

Polyoxymethylene

Main advantages of POM-C

1
Excellent workability
- Easy to machine with lathes and milling cutters.
- Good dimensional stability, ideal for precision small parts.
2
High mechanical strength and rigidity
- Good impact resistance.
- High fatigue resistance, suitable for components subject to repeated stress.
3
Low coefficient of friction and self-lubrication
- Reduced wear in moving components
- Ideal for bushings, guides, gears and bearings
4
Excellent resistance to moisture and chemicals
- Does not absorb water, therefore retains its mechanical properties
- Resistant to oils, solvents and detergents
5
Good temperature resistance
- Operation between -40°C and +100°Cwith peaks up to 120°C
6
Suitable for food applications (FDA-certified versions)
- Used in food & beverage machinery
- Alternative to stainless steel in certain contexts
