Polystone® M +G15 UHMWPE

Polystone® M +G15 UHMWPE

Polystone® M +G15 UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene – Molecular weight +9 million g/mol)

UHMWPE suited to engineered applications where its unique properties of excellent impact strength, sliding and abrasion resistance are required, such as required for wear strips.

FEATURES

  • Impact Strength – virtually unbreakable
  • Light weight – easy to handle without special equipment
  • Physiologically inert – approved for food applications
  • Electrical insulation – it is a good insulator
  • Weatherproof – it doesn’t absorb water
  • Chemical resistance – resists corrosive chemicals (Sulphuric Acid, Caustic Soda)
  • Abrasion resistance – rated better than Carbon Steel for sliding abrasion applications
  • Low coefficient of friction – it does not require lubrication

APPLICATIONS

  • Wear Strips,
  • Linings,
  • Material Handling,
  • Mechanical Bearing Parts,
  • Wear Parts,
  • Food Machinery Equipment
