Specialty UHMW-PE.

HighLine is now able to offer a range of specialty Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) sheet products. The base material has exceptional wear resistance, chemical resistance, impact absorption and slide properties.

In addition we are able to tailor the product to customer requirements by modifying the physical properties. Examples include:

  • Increased UV stabilization
  • Increased Heat stabilization
  • Metal detectable properties
  • Electrically dissipative
  • Electrically conductive
  • Silicone free
  • Wear optimized
  • Anti-microbial
  • Improved slide
  • Low adhesion
  • Reduced environmental impact

Over the coming weeks, we will be adding technical blog posts on some of these specialty UHMW-PE products. We aim to highlight the performance properties and discuss some of the market applications.
