UHMW-PE SHEET / PLATE --- Applications

UHMW-PE SHEET / PLATE

 

BIRS Machine & Supply distributor of UHMW-PE sheet and plate in a variety of 

colors and specialty grades. 

 

UHMW-PE is ultra high molecular weight polyethylene that has exceptionally high 

abrasion and impact resistance properties. UHMW will outwear all other materials, 

including metals, nylons, urethanes and fluoroplastics. In corrosion resistance, it has 

the same qualities of other polyethylene plastics. UHMW resists wear, friction and 

corrosion and thus it cuts maintenance costs, energy consumption and extends 

equipment life. Applications for UHMW materials include guide rails, wear plates, wear 

strips, chain guides, conveyor fights, bin and hopper liners, chute liners, conveyor 

components, bumpers, and other wear applications.

 

UHMW-PE is 1/8 the weight of cold roll steel.

GARR TOOL offers nine different tool coatings.

TIN (Titanium Nitride) - General purpose - low heat. Good lubricity.

TiCN (Titanium Carbonitrade) - Good abrasion resistance. Recommended for aluminum, brass and bronze applications. Low heat resistance - good lubricity

TiAIN (Titanium Aluminum Nitride) - Multi-layer coating with good thermal stability for increased speeds and feeds. For semi-dry cutting of most steels, high-nickel alloys, stainless steel and cast iron. Excellent heat resistance, good lubricity. For materials that are 40Rc and under.

AITiN (Aluminum Titanium) - A single-layer coating whose hardness, oxidation resistance and thermal stability were optimized for material hardness above 38Rc and high-speed machining of materials that are difficult to work including titanium alloys and inconel.

ALUMASTAR (Titanium Diboride - TiB2) - A thin film coating with a low affinity for aluminum, ideal for machining aluminum alloys. The resistance to adhesion of aluminum allows higher speeds and feeds. Coating thickness is intentionally kept lower in order to maintain a sharp edge.

CRYSTALLINE DIAMOND (CVD) - Improved productivity in composite materials. Excellent choice for cutting graphite and fiberglass. Can be added to a special tool for milling or drilling applications.

AICrN (Aluminum Chromium) - Aluminum Chromium-based coatings have excellent wear resistance, thermal shock stability, and hot hardness. Well suited for Titanium, Inconel, and Carbon Fiber machining.

HARDLUBE - Multi-layer coating with thermal stability and lubricating properties needed for the drilling of steels, high-nickel alloys, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and bronze. Excellent heat resistance, great lubricity.

TiAIN-based - Greater abrasion resistance, extra shear strength, lower adhesion tendency, maximum toughness and very smooth surface achieve a quantum leap in drilling performance. This coating is particularly advantageous for carbide drills. With its unique nanostructure, TiAIN plus AICrN, it boosts productivity in various materials.
