UHMW-PE Super Wear Resistant Plastic Sheet

Choosing UHMW Polyethylene Best Wear Resistant Plastic Rod. UHMW-PE has been out performing most other plastic materials in many function. With a ten times greater molecular weight when compared with standard High Density Polyethylene plastic materials, you can see how UHMW-PE would be the better choice for tough wear type installations. 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 some of the highest wear resistant and one of the lowest coefficient of friction. This versatile material  works very well with most machining and fabrication methods. Some very common applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets, abrasion resistant strips, wear plates, and shims. This is partly why UHMW-PE has grown and continues to grow in its popularity.
