UHMW PE
Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW PE) is the ideal material for facing steel fender panels and other heavy-duty applications. It has a low friction coefficient, excellent impact strength, and superior wear resistance compared to steel. UHMW PE is double-sintered and work-hardened for extra durability, available in a variety of colors including blue, yellow, white, grey, black, and red. It is ozone and UV-resistant, does not rot, and is recyclable.
UHMW PE Applications
- Fender panel (frame) face pads
- Rubbing strips
- V-fender shields
- Lock entrance and wall protection
- Bridge buttress protection
- Beltings on workboats
UHMW PE Features
- Low friction coefficient
- High abrasion resistance
- Anti-UV and ozone resistant
- Does not rot, split, or crack
- Recyclable
