UHMW SHEET, UHMWPE, ULTRA HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT POLYETHYLENE

 

 

UHMW SHEET, UHMWPE, ULTRA HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT POLYETHYLENE

UWMW sheet is a tough, durable form of polyethylene.  Also known as UWMWPE, Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene is an excellent plastic sheet material for high wear applications.  We have UHMW sheets in many configurations and we will also cut it to size.  This is virgin material, NOT regrind or repro UWMW.  This stuff is slick and very wear resistant.  UHMW is slippery; great for sliding wear applications like gravel and concrete chutes, parts egress on machines, and others.  Keep in mind that UHMW is not dimensionally stable and can be wavy and warped especially in longer runs and is not glueable; Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene must be secured with fasteners if you want to keep it in place.  Add it to your cart and enter dimensiods for custom sizing from freckleface.com.

Tolerances: Thickness +/- 10%. Length and width +/- 1/4". When we buy 48" X 96" sheets from the manufacturer, they give us a tolerance of +/- 1/4" on length and width. We also use a 3/16" thick blade to cut heavy materials, which reduces the finished size of your sheet. Sheets under 48" X 96" will likely be under, not over. We will be happy to quote a price for sheets that you require to be at or over the specified size.

  The excellent abrasion and chemical resistance
in addition to
the ability to absorb noise makes it
ideal for applications such as:
• star wheels and corner guides
• chain and belt guides
• idler sprockets
• guide rails and rollers
• bin and mixer linings
UHMW is a highly versatile polymer.
UHMW:
• low coefficient of friction
• excellent abrasion resistance
• high-impact strength
(will not break or shatter)
• chemical resistance
• FDA and USDA accepted
• broad temperature range
• little or no moisture absorption
• noise resistance
• easy to machine
Moving and conveying materials
presents engineers with the
challenge of finding a solution to
abrasion and sticking problems.
UHMW is the answer in
applications such as:
• drag flights and paddles
• truck bedliners
• side rails and skirtboards
• dragline bucket liners
UHMW
performs with
remarkably low
friction in the
packaging industry
A polymer that is self-lubricating,
non-marking and very easily
machined while continuing to
exhibit its exceptional abrasion resistance
 makes it extremely attractive in applications such as:
• bushings and bearings
• timing screws
• drive sprockets
• bumper and sorter push blocks
• wear strips and plates
UHMW resists
abrasion in the
conveying industry
Today’s high speed conveyors
demand surfaces with a low
coefficient of friction combined
with excellent impact and abrasion resistance.
UHMW is ideal
for the following applications:
• straight and curved tracks
• wear strips and guide rails
• rollers and roller sleeves
• gears and sprockets
• pillow blocks

 Custom Cut Information:

We now custom cut at a small additional charge, $1.00 per piece. Here's how to get it done:

1). Choose the stock size that is larger than the size you need and enter the quantity. Click "add to cart"

2). In the text box BELOW the item on the checkout page, write the size that you would like it cut to. Specify the size in whole and fractional INCHES. Example: 23 X 16-1/4. No need to put inch marks ("). We will consider all figures to be inches-DO NOT SPECIFY IN FEET. Do not put any other information in the text box, only the size.

3). Checkout, or continue shopping. Thats it! We will custom cut it to your specified size, we keep any cutoff pieces.

 



Please Note:

A). We will not cut a piece into many smaller pieces, we will only reduce it to one size. We keep any cutoffs. We cannot do shapes other than a square or rectangle.

B.) Except as noted above, cutting tolerance is +/- 1/16". This means that your piece may be over or under your requested size by 1/16". Note that the initial tolerance of the piece we begin with is +/- 1/4", which may affect your requested size. As an example, say you wanted our 1/4 X 24 X 24 custom cut to 24 X 19. Since the piece we start with is already 1/4" undersize due to the initial tolerance, we are cutting from a piece that is actually 23-3/4 X 23-3/4. Therefore, the piece we send you will be actually 23-3/4 X 19. If it had to be exactly 24, you would have to order a larger size. We cannot accept returns because you failed to recognize this, so please be sure!

C). Edges are sawcut. We do not finish edges. Because of tolerance and thickness variations, do not expect all pieces to fit together properly if you are building a box, aquarium, etc. Finish sizing is up to you.

D). If you are ordering MANY of the same item and only want SOME of them custom cut, enter them separately. For example, if you want 5 pieces 24 X 24 but only need 2 of them custom cut, place '2' in the quantity box, add it to your cart, then specify the custom size. Then go back to that page and put '3' in the quantity box and add it to your cart.

E). Cutting charges will be added.
