UHMW Best Abrasion Resistant Plastic Rod

Choosing UHMW Super Wear Resistant Sheet Plastic. UHMW-PE has been out performing almost all other plastic materials in some properties. With a ten times greater molecular weight when compared with normal HD Polyethylene resin, you can see how UHMW-PE would be the obvious choice for tough wear type jobs. Of all the polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic polymer. In addition, it also has a very high impact strength, chemical resistant, and is known for its wear resistant and a very low coefficient of friction. This versatile material  works very well with almost all machining and fabrication processes. Some typical and common applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets, abrasion resistant strips, wear plates, and shims. This is why Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene has grown in its popularity.
