UHMW-PE Ultra Abrasion Resistant Plastic Sheet

Why choose UHMW Polyethylene Super Abrasion Resistant Plastic Rod. UHMW-PE has been out performing almost all other plastic materials in some function. With almost a ten times greater molecular weight compared to normal HDPE materials, you can see how UHMW-PE would be the best choice for tough wear type jobs. Out of all the polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic polymer. On top of that, it also has great impact strength, chemical resistant, and industry best ratings in wear resistant and has a low coefficient of friction. This versatile material  works well with most machining and fabrication processes. Some of the most common applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets, wear 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. Wear Resistant UHMW
