TIVAR™ Ceram P UHMW-PE

Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene
TIVAR™ Ceram P UHMW-PE self-lubricating, glass-filled ultra high molecular weight polyethylene shapes excel in applications where high load, high speed and severe sliding capabilities are required. Easily recognizable by its bright green color, this grade in particular is characterized by its exceptional wear and corrosion resistance, minimal moisture absorption and high tensile strength over standard UHMW grades, ultimately resulting in increased part life and reduced maintenance downtime. For these reasons, TIVAR™ Ceram P UHMW-PE components are prevalent in the agriculture, lumber processing, material handling and pulp, paper and steel milling industries.
