Strongest type of delrin for cage sliders.....
What is the type of delrin that is the strongest? I got a foot of 1 5/8 round Acetron that this guy said was strong but when I tested it by letting the bike fall, it dragged 1 circle and grinded half way down! F-ing BS. Anyone know?

I always thought "DERLIN" was the type it was 
I didn't think there was different grades of derlin, I thought derlin indicated the grade of plastic
+1 on aluminum sliders though, mine have hit like 50 times already and are barely smashed. One set should damn near last you the life of your bike
my jalopy with aluminum sliders

but the TS sliders ive seen blow apart many times from simple parking lot drops, so i would think that there must be better grades of delrin..?

I low sided at around 50-55mph, aluminum just slid tell it hit the grass then flipped 
Yet the two sets of derlin I ran a couple years ago, both broke from dropping a 10mph or slower wheelie
not wanting to wait on more derlin, I rode anyways, smashed the end of my shitty cage lol

there is many different grades of delrin i use a grade that is 2 up from the cheapest kind cause i still get it at the cheep price which is still not hat cheep. i sound like a damn bird cheep cheep LOL. But you can also get delrin that is NASA quality which is like 143$ per foot.
