Source for thin Delrin sheets???

[Dario]

I am looking for thin Delrin sheets...anyone knows a source for this?

I am planning on using them as bushing spacer...much easier than turning my own Delrin bushings (I think)

I do have a rod that I can slice but I doubt I can easily make flat discs out of them.

Thanks for any leads!

Did you look at US plastics I beleive they might have it.

Try using the pastic gizmos on bread bags when they don't use wire ties.
The tops of soda bottle caps.
Milk bottle caps(there's a LOT of plastic in those)
Look around you, there are loads of free options that are machined to a uniform thickness that you throw away every day.

Thanks! I checked and yes they do have it []

Eagles,

What I need is a material that CA won't stick to. That is why I am looking for Delrin.

I ordered the 1/8" thick sheet and I included Novus 1 and 2 since I am there anyway []

I'll let you guys know if my idea works or not.

Ca won't "stick" to the stuff I already mentioned.
(well not permanently, it can be speparated)
CA also doesn't stick to clear packing tape.
Put a piece on the stuff I listed as insurance

Thanks Eagle, I will give those a try next time then.

I bought my Delrin from Cope Plastics. They no longer have a printed catalog but will answer questions on the phone.

We have a Cope Plastics here, but they went to wholesale only. MSC has some in a variety of sizes. Listed under the name Acetal.
