UHMWPE is often described as the world’s toughest polymer. UHMWPE is characterised by toughness, chemical resistance, its low coefficient of friction, near-zero moisture absorption and ease of machining.
UHMW machined parts have extremely high resistance to wear and abrasion. It has the highest impact strength of any thermoplastic and is highly resistant to most corrosive materials. UHMW is self-lubricating and performs well in extraordinarily low temperatures, but begins to soften in higher temperatures. Unlike nylon, it has a very low moisture absorption rate, making it suitable for use in wet environments.
UHMW Machined Parts are made in a completely controlled environment.
Some Examples of parts we can machine from UHMW:
UHMW O-rings, UHMW Seats, UHMW Bushings, UHMW Bearings, UHMW Guide Blocks, UHMW Wear Pads, UHMW Washers, UHMW Conveyor Guide Rail, UHMW PiPE Support, UHMW drag conveyor paddles.
Synthetic ice rink is made of uhmwpe. Mainly with white color. Different size and thickness can be customized. Outdoor skating rink is popular because its special material with good self lubrication, similar as real ice and it is not affected by seasons and environment. Ice skating rink is widely used for all kinds of ice sports.
Crane outrigger pads are made from a high-quality polyethylene. This means they will not splinter, crack, are non-conductive and will not absorb water. They are easy to install and provide a safe working environment for heavy equipment with outrigger arms. The unique design of our crane outriggers allows each pad to adapt to the working surface and return to its original shaPE once the work is complete.
Borated polyethylene board is made of boron carbide and polyethylene composite materials. Machining borated polyethylene sheet can effectively prevent the harm caused by nuclear radiation to family and society. Also, according to customers’ requirements, the boron carbide, borax, boron trioxide and lead powder can be added.
Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) belt conveyor roller is a high-tech product, which consists of UHMWPE pipe, metal bearing, metal shaft, plastic bearing housing, sealing ring and so on. Compared with metal roller, UHMWPE Conveyor Roller and UHMW PE Idler Roller has many obvious advantages in performance.
The effectiveness of the UPE Plastic Conveyor Roller provides the solution to the environmental challenges of dust, dirt, water, low and high temperatures. Our UPE Conveyor Idler is a high-tech product, which consists of uhmwpe pipe, metal bearing, metal shaft, plastic bearing housing, sealing ring, etc. Especially for our conveyor roller, adopting the new labyrinth groove combined sealing technology, which make the waterproof and dustproof effect more remarkable. UPE roller is the replacement product of metal roller, is widely used in places with extremely harsh conditions, having a high cost performance.
As most of us guess the steel conveyor roller is widely used in Market, but they are not know there is a type plastic conveyor roller start to occupy the market–UHMW-PE Roller. UHMWPE idler rollers is produced by Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene, it has more advantages like impact resistance, wear resistance, Corrosion resistance, no-stick, light weight. Because of its Superior performance, more and more enterprise like to use it and give up the steel roller.
