UHMW

Ultra High Molecular Weight

This plastic is tough and dense and it has extremely long molecular chains which all align in the same direction making UHMWPE 15 times more resistant to abrasion than carbon steel and give the material the highest impact strength of any thermoplastic made today.
UHMWPE is available in various grades, thicknesses and colours to suit your specific requirements.
