The Polyoxymethylene (POM) is a tough and long-lasting engineering polymer widely preferred where metal-like strength and accurate dimensional stability are needed. It has impressive hardness and stress-resistance properties that help parts perform under heavy load without deforming. POM also provides low sliding resistance, which makes it suitable for gears, bearings, and rolling mechanisms. Its fatigue endurance helps avoid cracks caused by repeated mechanical movement. POM naturally resists surface abrasion, ensuring parts retain their finish long after production. It also provides excellent resistance to hydrocarbons, making it suitable for applications involving gasoline, lubricants, and other petroleum-based materials.

POM is often applied in automotive inner frames, fuel valves, safety hardware parts, conveyor systems, and mechanical precision parts. It has a metal-like feel but is much more flexible in processing, allowing manufacturers to mold or machine it easily. The material also has excellent rebound elasticity for tight-seal or snap-fit enclosures. Because of its low moisture soak-in, performance remains stable in damp or tropical climates. Popular daily uses include watch parts, household fixtures, sports equipment pieces, zipper components, sliding mechanisms, and electrical connection systems. POM continues to stand out for reliable, smooth, and strong mechanical performance.
