Why choose UHMW-PE Super
Abrasion Resistant
Sheet Plastic. UHMW-PE has been out
performing most other plastic materials in many
function. With over a ten times
higher molecular weight in comparison with common
HDPE
resins, as you can see, this is how UHMW-PE would be the
better choice for tough wear type
projects. Of all the
polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any
thermoplastic polymer. In addition, it also has outstanding impact strength,
chemical resistant, extremely wear resistant and a
very low coefficient of friction. This
versatile material works extremely well with
almost all machining and fabrication
methods. Some typical and common
applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets,
wear strips, wear plates, and shims.
This is partly why Ultra High Molecular Weight
Polyethylene has grown
in its many uses.
