Description
UHMWPE Plastic Cushion Block – High Strength, Low Friction, Long Service Life
UHMWPE (PE-1000) – also known as ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, has a molecular mass of approximately 4,500,000 g/mol, giving it a very good wear resistance, bending strength, and impact resistance.
Excellent sliding properties and low sliding abrasion make it an ideal material for lightly loaded components.
Application – Product wheels and pinions, Chain guides, Conveyor trough lining, Chute linings for silos for grain storage.
Features of the UHMW-PE machined parts
1. Best shock resistance even in low temperatures
2. Low frictional factor, and well sliding bearing material
3. Lubricity (no caking, in adhesion)
4. Best chemical corrosion resistance and stress craze resistance
5. Excellent machinery process ability
6. Lowest water absorption
7. Paragon electric insulativity and anti-static behavior
8. Nice high energy radioactive resistance
9. Abrasive resistance which always have in thermoelectricity polymer
10. Density is lower than other thermoplastics
UHMWPE/HDPE shaped pieces are a thermoplastic engineering plastic. It combines the superior performance of all plastics, resistance to abrasion, impact resistance, chemical resistance, self-lubricating, and low temperature.
