UHMW Best Abrasion Resistant Plastic Sheet
Why choose UHMW Polyethylene Super Abrasion Resistant Sheet Plastic. UHMW-PE has been out performing the other plastic materials in many areas. With over a ten times greater molecular weight as compared to common HDPE materials, you can see why UHMW-PE would be the better choice for tough wear type installations. Of all the polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic polymer. On top of that, it also has outstanding impact strength, chemical resistant, and is known for its wear resistant and a very low coefficient of friction. This versatile material works extremely well with most machining and fabrication methods. Some of the most common applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets, abrasion resistant strips, wear plates, and shims. This is partly why UHMW-PE has continued to rise in its many uses. UHMW Sheet
