Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylenes are in a league of their own when it comes to impact and abrasion resistance. Combined with an extremely low coefficient of friction, UHMWPE is ideal for chain guides, rollers, lining systems, wear strips and scraper blades. Used widely in the food and packaging industries, UHMWPE is also available in a wide variety of grades.
