Extra-High-Strength 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. A built-in dry lubricant makes these rods self-lubricating and extra slippery, so they're smooth and quiet. They also withstand high temperatures and chemicals, so frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers won't affect them. Regularly used in food-processing and pharmaceutical plants, these rods are FDA compliant for direct contact with food. Also known as Tivar HPV.

Blue—Blue material can be easily spotted for removal if a piece falls into a batch in food or pharmaceutical plants.

Oil-Filled UHMW Polyethylene Rods

Often used as rollers, these oil-filled UHMW rods are self-lubricating for an extra-slippery surface that resists wear. They also offer excellent impact resistance.

Telescoping UHMW Polyethylene Round Tubes

Telescoping tubes, also known as bushing stock, slide over rods and inside shafts to increase or decrease the diameter. Their precise sizing allows ascending sizes to fit inside each other to create a thicker wall. These impact- and wear-resistant tubes offer 360° protection from scrapes and strikes to wires, cords, and anything that can slide through them. UHMW has a low-friction surface that resists sticking and binding.

Metal-Detectable UHMW Polyethylene Rods

Reduce the risk of contaminating your process line—these rods have an additive that can be located by metal detectors. Use them for bushings and bearings where food safety is a priority. They have excellent impact resistance and a slippery surface that prevents sticking and reduces wear.

Blue—Blue material can be easily spotted for removal if a piece falls into a batch in food or pharmaceutical plants.
