Between the Delrin and Acetal rods, both materials are quite tough and easily machinable, as they have similar physical properties. They appear the same, but for practical use there are a few differences that can make one preferable than the other. It also depends heavily on your application. As with all plastic materials, be sure to check the typical properties data sheet for the desired properties you may need for your application.
