Polyethylene bar:
UHMW-PE rod (English abbreviation: UHMW-PE) is an engineering plastic with superior comprehensive performance. It is made of pure new UPE resin and made by large-scale automatic controlled extrusion equipment. It is an ideal rod for high-performance plastic parts such as wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant. UHMWPE rod has the following excellent properties:
Superior machinability
Very good wear resistance
High impact strength
Good mechanical strength and stiffness
Good creep resistance
Ultra low water absorption
Non viscous
Superior chemical resistance
Good resistance to high energy radiation (gamma - and X-ray)
Good electrical insulation and dielectric properties
(1) In the machinery industry, the wear resistance, impact resistance and self lubrication of UHMWPE bars are mainly used. The main products include various sliding blocks, shaft sleeves, various pin shafts, gears, cams, impellers and so on.
(2) In the fluid transportation industry, the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of UHMWPE bars are mainly used. The main products are pump impeller, density pad and so on.
(3) In the textile industry, the impact resistance and wear resistance of UHMWPE bars are mainly used. The main products are all kinds of leather knots, gears, cotton rolls, cuttings and so on.
(4) In the ceramic industry, the wear resistance and non adhesion of UHMWPE bars are mainly used. The main products include various specifications of rolling head filter blocks, wheels and so on.
(5) In the beverage light industry, the wear resistance, impact resistance, self lubrication and non toxicity of UHMWPE bars are mainly used. The main products include all kinds of gears, cams, guide rails and guide bars.
Because of its comprehensive properties, UHMWPE bars can cover almost all parts with plastic instead of steel.
