POM Flanged Bushing conform to the following Standards/Norms:

POM Flanges, available with inside diameters ranging from 4mm to 20mm, are manufactured from Polyoxymethylene (POM), a highly durable engineering thermoplastic known for its excellent mechanical properties. These flanges are designed to provide reliable sealing and secure connections in various piping systems. POM is characterised by its high stiffness, low friction, and good dimensional stability, making it ideal for precision applications. The material also offers excellent chemical resistance and low moisture absorption, ensuring consistent performance in diverse environments. POM flanges are commonly used in industries where precision, durability, and resistance to wear and chemicals are essential.

Inside Diameter (mm) – 4, 5, 5.1, 9.7, 10, 12.7, 15.7, 20

Outside Diameter (mm) – 6, 8, 10, 15, 16, 19.3, 23, 26

Overall Length (mm) – 5.5, 5.9, 8, 8.8, 9, 11, 16.5, 18, 20, 21.5

Advantages of Using POM Flanges:

High Mechanical Strength: POM flanges exhibit excellent tensile and impact strength, making them suitable for applications requiring robust and durable connections.

Low Friction and Wear Resistance: The low coefficient of friction in POM ensures smooth operation and reduces wear, prolonging the lifespan of both the flanges and the connected components.

Good Dimensional Stability: POM maintains its shape and size under varying temperatures and moisture conditions, ensuring precise and reliable connections.

Chemical Resistance: POM resists a wide range of chemicals, including solvents and fuels, making these flanges ideal for use in chemically aggressive environments.

Low Moisture Absorption: The low moisture absorption rate of POM helps maintain its mechanical properties and dimensional stability in humid or wet environments.
