Re: I need help with plastics
Delrin is an awesome material, and as an added feature it is self lubricating.

Basically, this means if you are going to be using it as a axel bushing for example, it may not take as much load as a brass bushing true, but it won't need oiling to keep it rolling on smoothly, unless you are in a exteremly high heat application where it dries out.

What kind of "thing" are you going to be making out of this plastic material?
