Item Description:
UHMW Polyethylene Sheet You pick the size & Thickness Black Color
- UHMW , also known as high molecular weight polyethylene. Ultra High Molecular weight polyethylene is an extremely high abrasion resistant material.
- UHMW resist wear . friction and corrosion and thus it cuts maintenance costs , energy consumption and extends equipment life. UHMW molecular weight ranges from 3.1 million to 100 million grams per mole , with an ideal replacement for stainless steel in transporting difficult materials .
- UHMW -PE has crystalline melting point of 267F (131C). Recommended maximum service is about 200F (93C)
- Very good wear and abrasion resistance
- High impact strength, even at low temperatures (particularly PE-UHMW)
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Low density compared with other thermoplastics
- Low coefficient of friction
- Excellent release properties
- Very low water absorption
- Moderate mechanical strength, stiffness and creep resistance
- Very good electrical insulating and dielectric properties (except static dissipative grades)
- Excellent machinability
- Physiologically inert (several grades are suitable for food contact)
- Good resistance to high energy radiation (gamma- and X-rays)
- Not self-extinguishing
