Common buyer questions

Before you request a quote.

What should a POM enquiry for a moving part include?

State the load, movement, mating material, lubrication and expected exposure. Include drawings or tolerances and your existing material reference so the offered grade can be reviewed against the duty.

How do I request POM supply from PANTEX?

Send the current grade or required datasheet, intended application, order quantity, packaging and destination. The offer will identify the proposed material, commercial terms and available documentation before you decide.

Are technical values and certifications guaranteed for the whole family?

No. Performance, approvals and availability relate to the exact offered grade. Request the current technical datasheet and any required declarations; qualification samples and supporting documents are subject to source confirmation.
