Not sure if this is the best subforum, but here it goes!

I have a rudder pedal mount that I need to fabricate. The rudder pedal rotates between two peices bolted together. Plans call for fabricating it our of phenolic, but I want to use delrin instead because:
  1. I have some lying around
  2. Aircraft spruce is charging me 60 bucks for shipping of a phenolic sheet
  3. I think the movement will be smoother with a delrin mount
Would there be any concerns for this substitution? Thanks!
