UHMW Best Wear Resistant Plastic Rod

Why choose UHMW Super Abrasion Resistant Plastic Rod. UHMW-PE has been out performing most other plastic materials in many areas. With over a ten times greater molecular weight than common HDPE materials, you can certainly see why UHMW-PE would be the best choice for tough wear type projects. Of all the polymers, UHMW-PE has the highest abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic polymer. In addition, it also has a very high impact strength, chemical resistant, and is known for its wear resistant and a very low coefficient of friction. This versatile material  works very well with almost all machining and fabrication processes. Some very common applications are: scrapers, door and drawer glides, washers, gaskets, wear resistant strips, wear plates, and shims. This is why Ultra High Molecular Weight PE has grown in its popularity.
