UHMW Best Wear Resistant Sheet Plastic

Picking UHMW Polyethylene Ultra Abrasion Resistant Plastic Rod. UHMW-PE has been out performing the other plastic materials in some areas. With almost a ten times higher molecular weight in comparison with conventional HD Polyethylene resin, you can certainly see why UHMW-PE would be the obvious choice for tough wear type jobs. Out of all the polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic polymer. On top of that, it also has great impact strength, chemical resistant, and is known for its wear resistant and has a low coefficient of friction. This versatile material  works well with all standard 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 UHMW-PE has grown in its popularity.
