What are POM strips?
POM strips are strips made from polyoxymethylene (POM), an engineering plastic known for
its stiffness, dimensional stability and low friction. They are commonly used in
applications where precise guidance or sliding movement is required.
Where are POM strips used?
POM strips are used as guide strips, wear strips, spacers and sliding components in
industrial and mechanical systems. Typical applications include machinery, automation
equipment and technical installations.
Are POM strips the same as acetal strips?
Yes, POM strips and acetal strips refer to the same material. Acetal is the commonly
used trade or generic name for polyoxymethylene (POM). Both terms describe the same
engineering plastic with identical material properties.
Properties of POM strips
POM strips offer good mechanical strength, low moisture absorption and reliable wear
resistance. These properties make them suitable for applications where a stable shape
and consistent performance are important.
