Product Details
UHMW plastic is the material to use when your application demands extreme wear resistance, low friction, and reliable impact performance. Known for its ultra-high molecular weight, this industrial-grade polymer performs where metal and other plastics break down. We provide UHMW plastic sheets and components fabricated to exacting standards for long-term use in abrasive, high-load environments.
This material doesn’t just last—it outlasts. With a low coefficient of friction and exceptional resistance to chemical attack, UHMW plastic is trusted for moving parts, liners, and components that face continuous contact, impact, or vibration. It’s self-lubricating, non-stick, and resists cracking under repeated stress.
We cut and machine UHMW to your specifications, whether you need standard sheets or precision-cut parts. When uptime matters and wear failure isn’t an option, UHMW plastic gives you the edge in performance and longevity.
Application
UHMW plastic stands up to high-load, high-friction, and high-impact environments where other materials wear down fast. It handles repeated use, sliding contact, and abrasive conditions without losing shape or strength.
Common Uses for UHMW Plastic
- Conveyor Components and Wear Strips – Reduces friction and extends the life of belts, chains, and moving parts.
- Hopper and Chute Liners – Keeps bulk materials flowing by preventing sticking and reducing buildup.
- Sprockets, Bushings, and Bearings – Self-lubricating properties reduce maintenance and eliminate the need for greasing.
- Dock Fenders and Marine Bumpers – Absorbs impact and resists water, salt, and chemicals in harsh marine conditions.
- Truck Bed Liners and Dump Trailers – Allows material to slide cleanly out, minimizing hang-ups and manual clearing.
- Food Processing Equipment – FDA-compliant options available for surfaces that require non-stick, clean-contact performance.
- Material Handling Systems – Ideal for packaging lines and equipment guides due to its durability and non-marking surface.
UHMW plastic solves the kind of problems that cost time and money—friction wear, part failure, and unplanned maintenance. We’ll help you spec, machine, and deliver UHMW solutions that run longer, smoother, and stronger.
