However, if you are bonding acetal to other materials, such as metal, then an industrial adhesive is a good option. As the material seems to have quite a lubricated surface, then roughening it up will help improve adhesive keying and bond strength.

This plastic is fairly low cost and has good structural properties \u2013 it is often used instead of metal. It is very high strength, with good impact resistance, low rate of water-absorption, good chemical resistance (even against solvents), high dielectric strength and good flame resistance. Acetal is available in a number of different blends e.g.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Glass filled<\/li>\r\n<li>PTFE filled for improved slip properties (low friction)<\/li>\r\n<li>Toughened, abrasion resistant<\/li>\r\n<li>UV stabilised, pigmented<\/li>\r\n<li>Antistatic<\/li>\r\n<li>Conductive<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>A common trade name for acetal is Delrin (DuPont).\u00a0 Acetal material is often used for cogs, gears, plastic bearings, conveyor rollers, impellers etc. where the low friction surface is particularly important.\u00a0 Pump housings, motor housings and some pipe fittings may also incorporate acetal parts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For more information on bonding acetal using industrial adhesives, please contact the Permabond technical team <a href=\"https:\/\/permabond.com\/contact-us\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joining Techniques and Surface Preparation for Bonding Acetal For joining acetal to acetal a welding technique such as a heated tool, hot gas, spin, or ultrasonic welding is common.
