Ensinger SPI

Ensinger Tecaform™ FG Blue Food Grade Acetal (POM)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Acetal (Polyoxymethylene, POM)

Material Notes: Tecaform™ is resistant to hot water and typical cleaning chemicals. It possesses good bearing and wear properties. The blue color makes it more visible than standard grades. It is commonly used as bushings, rollers, wear strips and other applications requiring a combination of strength, low moisture absorption, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability.

Features:

  • No centerline porosity
  • Low moisture absorption
  • excellent machinability
  • Good combination of mechanical properties
  • Resistance to food industry cleaning chemicals, including aqueous solutions with pH between 4 and 14
  • Good wear and abrasion properties
  • Manufactured from resin and color components that are FDA, USDA, and 3A Dairy compliant
  • Good dimensional stability
  • Good property retention at elevated temperatures

    Information supplied by Ensinger, Inc.
