Delrin is a type of plastic. An absolute dream to machine. Cuts like butter and has an awesome finish with the right tools,feeds and speeds.

Works extremely well for skid plates and various little brackets we use of crawlers. It's light weight characteristics added with it's strength fit allot of applications we need in a crawler.

Here's a few reads on delrin....
