XINXING UHMWPE1000 Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is the first choice material for facing steel fender panels and other heavy duty applications. It combines very low friction with excellent impact strength and a wear resistance much better than steel. Most popular is ABOSN UHMWPE1000-DS which is ‘double-sintered’ and work-hardened for extra durability. The standard color is black, but if other colors are needed then UHMWPE1000-V ‘virgin’ grade also comes in yellow, white, grey, blue, green and red. UHMWPE1000 materials are compounded to resist ozone and UV radiation. They do not degrade or not and are easily recycled at the end of their service life.
