Polyethylene
PEHD 1000 (UHMW)
Ultra-high molecular weight — impact resistance
PEHD 1000 (UHMW-PE) is an engineering thermoplastic known for its exceptional resistance to wear, impact and abrasion. It has a very low coefficient of friction, excellent chemical resistance and strong impact absorption, even at low temperatures. It is ideal for chain guides, slide rails, wear strips, rollers, conveyor parts and components for the food, packaging, handling and engineering industries.
