UHMWPE Rod is a wonderful engineering plastic that can solve many problems that other engineering plastics cannot offer. UHMWPE Rod is not as commonly known as other engineering plastics such as Nylon Rod but is still very important and also has distinct advantages over the more common engineering plastics.
Application for UHMWPE Rod
UHMWPE Rod is particularly chosen for it's low co-efficient of friction which means it will produce bearings, pulleys or bushes that are very free running, low friction and long lasting. UHMWPE Rod is also very abrasive resistant, this means that UHMWPE Rod can be used in high demand environments such as grit or gravel and survive longer than other materials. UHMWPE Rod can often be used in high demand components in the food industry, this is because it has a very low moisture absorption that gives UHMWPE Rod an FDA approval and means that bearings etc will not expand due to any moisture absorption. Another reason that UHMWPE Rod is also used in the marine industry for pulleys is it's low friction and minimal moisture absorption.
Availability of UHMWPE Rod
UHMWPE Rod is commercially available from a minimum diameter and a maximum diameter of 200mm. UHMWPE Rod is also manufactured in maximum lengths of 2000mm. UHMWPE Rod is also commercially available in natural colour and also black and green colour.
