Hi
Delrin is one of the family of engineering plastics, its a very low friction self lubricating material made by DuPont and is some times called Polyoxymethylene or POM. Its used in a vast list of applications from body piercings to turbine seals. I use it in large amounts for bearings on telescope drives (part of our main work).
Good stuff.

Kevin
