UHMWPE is a common machinable plastic known for durability, versatility and cost-effectiveness as well as abrasion, impact and chemical resistances. UHMWPE plastic features a molecular weight that ranges from 3.1 million to 100 million grams per mole, with an abrasion resistance that continues to improve as molecular weight increases.

Reprocessed UHMWPE is an eco-friendly and economical alternative to standard virgin UHMWPE that uses a blended version of virgin and recycled UHMWPE. Reprocessed UHMWPE is excellent for non-food applications and offers all the benefits of standard UHMWPE at a much more cost effective price. Reprocessed UHMWPE features the same low coefficient of friction as standard UHMWPE while also offering a slightly better wear resistance. Reprocessed UHMWPE is used extensively for chain guides, wear rails, chute liners, truck liners, hopper liners and many other applications where excellent wear properties are required. The standard color of reprocessed UHMWPE is black.
