PE 1000 OIL+ - polyethylene

UHMW-PE – Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene

PE 1000 OIL+ - polyethylene

PE 1000 OIL+ is an ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (approx. 9.2 million g/mol) plastic that has undergone further processing. Because of the lubricant added to it, the material is self-lubricating and extremely wear-resistant. This material is suitable for use in high-speed chains. It increases the maintenance intervals for high-grade conveyors and chains. We deliver PE 1000 OIL+ as plastic sheets.
