Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Rods and Discs
- Color: White
- Temperature Range: -40° to 180° F
- Tensile Strength: 4,350-5,800 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: 16.8 ft.-lbs./in. (Excellent)
- Hardness: Durometer 65D-67D (Medium)

Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Tubes
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.
Tubes with an oversized OD also have an undersized ID for finishing to the sizes listed.
Tight-tolerance 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.

High-Strength Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Rods
- Color: Blue
- Temperature Range: -325° to 175° F
- Tensile Strength 5,900 psi (Good)
- Impact Strength: 55 ft-lbs./in. (Excellent)
- Hardness: Durometer 65D (Medium)
- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: ASTM D4020, FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.1520, FDA Compliant 21 CFR 178.3297
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, and their blue color makes them easy to spot if any part falls into your product line. Also known as Tivar HPV.

Oil-Filled Slippery UHMW Polyethylene Rods
- Color: Gray
- Temperature Range: -450° to 180° F
- Tensile Strength: 3,000-5,500 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: No Break (Excellent)
- Hardness: Durometer 62D-67D (Medium)
- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: ASTM D4020, MIL-P-21922, UL 94 V-2
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.
