Slippery UHMW Polyethylene

Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets, Bars, and Strips

Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets, Bars, and Strips

In addition to a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough material is impact and wear resistant to handle the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t.

Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Tubes

In addition to a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough material is impact and wear resistant to handle the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t.

Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Film

testString

In addition to a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough material is impact and wear resistant to handle the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t.

Recycled Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets and Bars

Recycled Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets and Bars

More sustainable than standard UHMW, these sheets and bars are made from partially recycled material, so they have a lower carbon footprint.

Slippery UHMW Polyethylene 90° Angles

In addition to a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough material is impact and wear resistant to handle the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t.

Slippery UHMW Polyethylene U-Channels

In addition to a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough material is impact and wear resistant to handle the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t.

Antistatic Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets and Bars

Antistatic Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets and Bars

This material suppresses static charges to prevent dust from building up.

Antistatic Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Rods

This material suppresses static charges to prevent dust from building up.

Recycled Antistatic Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets

Recycled Antistatic Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets

Made with carbon black, these recycled UHMW sheets are a sustainable alternative to standard UHMW sheets in applications where static electricity is a concern, such as in conveying equipment and chute liners.

Electrically Conductive Carbon-Filled
Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Film

testString

The addition of carbon gives this material the ability to divert static electricity faster than antistatic UHMW.

High-Temperature Slippery UHMW Polyethylene

High-Temperature Slippery UHMW Polyethylene

Also known as Tivar H.O.T., this material lasts up to 10 times longer in high-temperature applications than standard UHMW.

High-Strength Slippery UHMW
Polyethylene Sheets and Bars

High-Strength Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Sheets and Bars

Compared to our standard UHMW polyethylene, these sheets and bars hold up better to scuffs and scrapes in high-speed, high-precision, and high-impact applications—such as conveyor equipment, chute liners, and machine guards. Also known as Tivar HPV.

High-Strength Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Rods

Often used in high-speed, high-precision, and high-impact applications, such as conveyor rollers and bearings, these rods stand up to scratches and scuffs better than our standard UHMW polyethylene rods. Also known as Tivar HPV.

Oil-Filled Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Rods

This oil-filled material is self-lubricating for an extra-slippery surface.

Abrasion-Resistant Glass-Filled
Slippery UHMW Polyethylene

Abrasion-Resistant Glass-Filled Slippery UHMW Polyethylene

The addition of glass fibers makes this material more abrasion resistant than standard UHMW. It’s also known as Tivar 88.
