This makes it ideal for manufacturing parts that are resistant to impact, corrosion, abrasion and temperatures from -73°C to 80°C. UHMW-PE must be processed by direct compression or extrusion.
WHY UHMW-PE
Some of our parts have starring roles in Hollywood
Our tracks, wheels and skis were used on vehicles featured in James Bond and Fast and Furious.
UHMW-PE in professional sports
Our plows are so sturdy, they are used to clear national hockey league rinks!
The longer the chain, the better the UHMW-PE!
If a monomer from our UHMW-PE was the size of a hockey puck, we would get a chain the distance of Drummondville-Ottawa.
A RANGE OF POSSIBILITIES
UHWM-PE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) is an extremely strong plastic that can be made into any shape, color or size. The Soucy custom compression molding process can meet your expectations, no matter the complexity and specifications of your parts. This plastic can be machined for greater precision. It can also be combined with metal, rubber or both materials for different purposes, thereby making these high-performance, customized parts lighter, stronger and cost-effective for your operations.
