low co-efficient of friction UHMWPE fender

Product Description

UHMW-PE (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene) is an extremely tough and abrasion resistant thermoplastic that is used for applications that require durability and/or abrasive wear resistance.

Extremely hard wearing, with a low friction coefficient and high abrasion resistance, UHMWPE FENDER provides a smooth sliding surface for vessels to travel along the fender face.

• Superior impact resistance
• High abrasion resistance
• Low co-efficient of friction
• Excellent surface release properties
• Good chemical resistance
• Excellent UV stability*-highly suited to the harsh Australian climate
• Temperature resistant(**0°Cto**0°C)
• No moisture absorption
• Can be supplied pre-drilled for easy installation and chamfered to avoid snagging.UHMW
