TSD UHMWPE Sheet, or PE500, PE1000 range of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene has a very high impact strength and wear resistance given it's extremely long molecular chains and molecular mass of between 4.5 to 7.5 million amu. Service temperature range from -260 degrees C to +80 degrees C. The UHMWPE range is available in Natural (White), Green & Black Anti Static(AS), Black Fender, Super lining Blue with longer wear life. All UHMWPE sheets are molded pressed and planed and have very good machining properties which make this an ideal material for food production, port construction and mining applications..
Our Advantages
Very high abrasion resistance and impact resistance
Low coefficient of friction
Self-lubricating on non-adhesive surfaces
Reduce maintenance costs and extend equipment life
Corrosion resistance
Extremely robust
Good chemical resistance
Low moisture absorption
