Thanks gents. I am trying to talk the coworker into delrin,

There's a big difference between Teflon and Delrin.

RE: Teflon Rod

There are other plastics to consider 'pomalux' (there are a couple of other equivalents) is one I've used in an application that others may have used Delrin.  Probably more expensive though.

In my case it was worth it.
