UHMW-PE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene)

Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a premium engineering plastic known for its exceptional strength, durability, and wear resistance. With a molecular weight significantly higher than standard polyethylene, UHMWPE offers superior impact strength, low friction coefficient, and outstanding resistance to abrasion and chemicals.

ESD+FR UHMWPE

Anti-static, flame-retardant polyethylene combining permanent surface resistivity with self-extinguishing properties and exceptional abrasion resistance.
