HDPE Sheet

Polythylene PE 500 sheet commonly refered to as ultra-high-molecular-weight, UHMW, or UHMWPE, is one o our most popular engineering plastics. It provides excellent resistance to abrasion, chemicals, impact and wear, and offers very low co-eficient of friction. UHMW-PE is also non-toxic, odourless, and is highly resistant to mosture.

UHMW plastic sheet is commonly machined into wear strips, chain guides and change parts and is a popular engineering plastic in food processing and bottling operations. Specific grades of PE1000 are also used in bulk material handling applications to line chutes, hoppers and dump trucks, helping to improve product flow and prevent against ratholing and arching.

Low Coefficient of Friction

UHMW-PE is used in applications where high friction is likely, including conveyor guards, auger flights and wear strips, belt scrapers, chain guides, and idler rollers. Due to its extremely low coefficient of friction, its inherent lubricity minimizes heat-generating friction that could gradually damage steel components, ensuring smooth, quiet operation.

Self-Lubricating Formula

The high durability, low friction, and abrasion resistance of UHMW-PE make it the preferred material for numerous applications. With specialized internal lubricants replacing unnecessary greases and oils, UHMW-PE exhibits an extremely low coefficient of friction. This enhances the efficiency and productivity of many applications. The self-lubricating formula of UHMW-PE helps extend the lifespan of components, as internal lubricants ensure parts remain intact without cracking or needing replacement.
