UHMWPE Sheet
/ UHMWPE Rod is a high performing
engineering plastic that is also known as Ultra
High Molecular Weight Polyethylene. This is an
often overlooked engineering plastic that does
have significant advantages and properties making
UHMWPE Rod/Sheet an excellent plastic for many
engineering applications.
UHMWPE Sheet / UHMWPE Rod
Features One of the key reasons that
UHMWPE Sheet / UHMWPE
Rod is often specified is
because of its incredible abrasion resistance.
This engineering plastic has probably one of the
best abrasion resistance levels of all the
engineering plastics to make UHMWPE probably unique at
this level. Another key reason that UHMWPE Rod is
chosen is because of the very low friction levels
which make for very free running bearings or
sliding surfaces. UHMWPE has similar low friction
levels to that of PTFE which is very good indeed.
