UHMW Best Wear Resistant Sheet Plastic
Choosing UHMW Polyethylene Best Abrasion Resistant Plastic Rod. UHMW-PE has been out performing the other plastic materials in some properties. With nearly ten times greater molecular weight in comparison with standard HDPE plastic materials, you can certainly see how UHMW-PE would be the best choice for tough wear type jobs. Of all the polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic polymer. This material also has great impact strength, chemical resistant, extremely wear resistant and a very low coefficient of friction. This versatile material works well with all standard machining and fabrication methods. Some very common applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets, wear resistant strips, wear plates, and shims. These are some of the reasons Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene has grown in its many uses. UHMW sheet
