UHMW-PE Super Wear Resistant Plastic Rod

Choosing UHMW-PE Best Abrasion Resistant Sheet Plastic. UHMW-PE has been out performing most other plastic materials in many areas. With almost a ten times higher molecular weight when compared with normal High Density Polyethylene resins, you can certainly see how UHMW-PE would be the better choice for tough wear type projects. Out of all the polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic polymer. This material also has great impact strength, chemical resistant, and is known for its wear resistant and one of the lowest coefficient of friction. This versatile material  works well with all standard machining and fabrication processes. Some of the most common applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets, wear resistant strips, wear plates, and shims. These are some of the reasons Ultra High Molecular Weight PE has grown and continues to grow in its many uses.
