UHMW-PE, or Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene is an extremely tough and abrasion resistant thermoplastic used for applications that require durability and/or abrasive wear resistance.
FEATURES OF UHMW
While UHMW-PE’s exterior features resemble various polyethylene materials, UHMW’s high physical and mechanical strength provides far better performance than standard polyethylene.
·Impact resistance
·Corrosion Resistant
·Antistatic and low friction coefficient
·Antimicrobial and non-toxic
·High Temperature Resistance
·Easily Machined
·Low moisture resistance
