PE 1000 - R

PE 1000 - R


Product full identity:
Polyethylene - Reprocessed Ultra High Molecular
Weight

PE 1000-R is a reprocessed, low cost, alternative to our standard virgin grade PE1000 material. This material carries similar properties as PE1000, such as good wear resistance and  liding properties. PE1000-R, however does have some minor restrictions i.e. not recommended for food contact.

Properties


  • Low cost
  • High wear resistance and sliding properties
  • High Impact strength
  • Wide temperature range (+80 to -100°C)
  • Very low moisture absorption <0.1%.

Applications


  • General machining
  • Wear applications
  • Conveying
  • Packaging
  • Bulk material handling.

Forms


  • Sheet
