Description
UHMW & Reprocessed UHMW PE Sheet
Material Overview
UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is a high-performance engineering plastic known for its exceptional durability, impact resistance, and abrasion resistance. With an ultra-high molecular structure, UHMW provides long service life, excellent chemical stability, and reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
Reprocessed UHMW is an economical and environmentally friendly alternative made from a controlled blend of virgin and recycled UHMW material. It delivers the same low-friction and self-lubricating characteristics as virgin UHMW, making it ideal for non-food-grade applications that require high wear resistance at a lower cost.
Low Friction & Self-Lubricating Performance
Both UHMW and reprocessed UHMW feature an extremely low coefficient of friction. This naturally self-lubricating property reduces heat generation, minimizes noise, and prevents excessive wear on adjacent components. Unlike metal parts, UHMW materials do not require grease or oil, helping reduce maintenance costs and downtime.
Wear Resistance & Durability
UHMW plastics offer outstanding abrasion resistance, with performance improving as molecular weight increases. Reprocessed UHMW maintains excellent wear resistance and, in many applications, performs equal to or better than standard UHMW. These materials resist impact, chemicals, and moisture, ensuring reliable operation in harsh working conditions.
Typical Applications
UHMW and reprocessed UHMW plastic sheets are widely used in high-wear and sliding applications, including:
Chain guides and wear rails
Conveyor guard rails and belt scrapers
Chute liners and hopper liners
Truck liners and augers
Idler rollers and industrial wear strips
Cost-Effective & Sustainable Choice
Reprocessed UHMW provides a cost-effective solution without sacrificing performance. By incorporating recycled material, it supports sustainability goals while delivering long-lasting durability and efficient operation in industrial systems.
UHMW and reprocessed UHMW plastic sheets are trusted solutions for industries seeking reduced friction, extended component life, and dependable performance in continuous-use applications.
