Project Description

Polyethylene (PE)

Polyethylene PE is a thermoplastic that encompasses several qualities and can be obtained in different forms of molding. High molecular weight and low density (low specific weight). It can be considered non-hygroscopic, it is the thermoplastic that absorbs less moisture.

Together with PTFE it has excellent thermal and electrical insulation characteristics, as well as low coefficient of dynamic friction.

We sell polyethylene 300/500 and 1000.

Main features:

  • PE1000 excellent wear resistance
  • Below dynamic coefficient of friction
  • High molecular weight and low specific weight
  • Not self-extinguishing
  • Physiologically inert
  • Very low moisture absorption
  • High impact resistance
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Excellent properties and electrical and insulation

Applications:

  • Sliding skates
  • Rollers
  • Stars and guides for packaging
  • Endless life
  • Gaskets
  • Valve seats
  • Hammer maps
  • Scrapers
  • Hopper and silo coatings
  • Coating for aggregate channels
  • Punching plates
  • Cutting and cutting tables
