Black White Yellow Green Red UHMW Polyethylene Sheet 96 L X 48 W X 12 Thick
PE-UHMW (PE-1000) sheets as standard sheets in the format 2.0x1.0 metres and 2.44x1.22 meters in the thicknesses: 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 40mm, 50mm, 60mm and 80mm conveniently online at favourable prices. Our sheets made of PE-HD-UHMW have very long molecular chains and are made of 100% virgin material - Made in China.
Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) Polyethylene will outwear all other materials, including metals, nylons, urethanes, and fluoroplastics. Applications include guide rails, wear plates, rollers, conveyor augers, bin and hopper lines, chutes, bearings, bushings, and gears.
Exceptionally high abrasion & impact resistance
Low coefficient of friction
Self-lubricating with a non-adherent surface
Cuts maintenance costs & extends equipment life
Corrosion resistance; same qualities of other PE
Use mechanical fasteners in construction
Temperature range: -60°F to 180°F
PE-HD-UHMW is usually referred to as PE-UHMW or PE-1000 and stands for polyethylene with high density and ultra high molecular weight. Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene has very long molecular chains and an average molecular weight of more than 9 million g/mol. This makes PE-UHMW (PE-1000) significantly better than PE-HD or PE-HME (PE-500) in terms of wear resistance, abrasion resistance and notched impact strength. The latter stands for very good impact and shock resistance.
The very high molecular density (lower molar mass density) is particularly noticeable in the very low coefficient of sliding friction - to put it simply, the increased sliding properties of PE-UHMW. This increases the service life in particular, which is why PE-UHMW is used for chain guides, plain bearings or gear wheels that are subject to the highest stresses. But PE-UHMW is also used in medical technology, for example in the manufacture of orthoses, because of its very high wear resistance.
