Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE or sometimes shortened to UHMW),
also known as high-modulus polyethylene (HMPE) or high-performance polyethylene (HPPE),
is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene. It has extremely long chains, with
molecular weight numbering in the millions, usually between 2 and 6 million.
Polystone® M UHMW is a tough, wear resistant plastic that combines an incredibly
low coefficient of friction with outstanding impact strength. This self-lubricating
polymer has excellent chemical resistance and a broad temperature range making it
the perfect choice for engineers in a variety of industries such as conveyor and
bulk material handling.
Polystone® M Features:
- Meets FDA and USDA guidelines
- 3-A Dairy approved (Natural color)
- Helps to reduce noise
- Self-lubricating
- Chemical, corrosion and wear resistant
- No moisture absorption
- Non-toxic, low-friction surface
Polystone® M Applications:
- Chute, hopper and truck bed liners
- Wear strips and guide rails
- Star wheels, sprockets and conveyor tracks
- Bumpers and dock fenders
- Bushings, bearings and rollers
