Ultra High Molecular Weight UHMWPE Plastic Sheets

Material Overview

Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a high-performance thermoplastic engineering plastic that combines the superior properties of many plastics into a single material. It has mechanical strength higher than high-density polyethylene and offers outstanding wear resistance, impact resistance, low-temperature toughness, stress-crack resistance, high-temperature creep resistance, and excellent chemical stability. Its low friction coefficient and self-lubricating properties make it ideal for applications requiring smooth motion and long-term durability.

UHMWPE is a reliable replacement for metals such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and bronze and is widely used in industries including textile, paper, food machinery, transportation, medical, coal, and chemical processing.

Key Advantages

• Highest abrasion resistance among polymers – up to 6 times more wear-resistant than steel

• Self-lubricating with very low friction coefficient

• Excellent chemical and corrosion resistance

• Superior impact, noise, and vibration absorption

• High tensile strength and durability even at extreme temperatures (-180°C to +80°C)

• UV resistant, non-toxic, odorless, flame-retardant options available

• Low water absorption and excellent electrical properties

• Lightweight, easy to handle, and cost-efficient

• 100% recyclable, does not rot, crack, or split

Applications

UHMWPE sheets are used across a wide range of industrial and commercial applications, including:

• Conveyor guide rails, belt scrapers, chain guides, bearings, sprockets, rollers, and wear plates

• Chemical tanks, bulk material handling, mining equipment, transportation, and recreational equipment

• Paper, food, packaging, textile, and environmental protection equipment

• Silo lining, port machinery, construction machinery, hoppers, and chutes

• Anti-static boards for docks, grain processing, and mining

• Flame-retardant boards for underground mining

• Radiation protection panels for hospitals and nuclear power plants

• Skid plates, self-lubricating plates, and fender plates for industrial handling

• Specialty plates including double-color, glass bead, hanging rubber, and microplates for equipment lining and filtration
