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.

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

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

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

If a chip of this material breaks off, it can be located by metal detectors to reduce contamination risks.

Practically nonabsorbent, HDPE won't swell when exposed to moisture. It is denser and more rigid than LDPE, plus it's more chemical resistant.

Often used for packaging and construction applications, this film is also known as Visqueen.

A layer of soft LDPE is sandwiched between two thin layers of aluminum for strength and rigidity.

Made of FDA-listed materials, these polyethylene foam sheets are often used as packaging for food products to absorb shock and damp vibration.

These dual-material foam sheets have ultra-soft polyurethane foam on one side and chemical-resistant polyethylene foam on the other. They are widely used in packaging applications to absorb shock and damp vibration.

Know at a glance when a tool is missing from a toolbox with this dual-color foam.

You only need one free hand to tear a sheet of wrap from the box.
