Description
This premium anti-static pressed and planed black polyethylene sheet is engineered for demanding industrial and engineering applications where high wear resistance, excellent impact strength and static control are essential. Manufactured from high-quality polyethylene, it provides a robust, dimensionally stable solution that is easy to machine and fabricate to your exact project requirements.
Supplied in a smart black finish with a smooth, planed surface, the sheet is ideal for components, guards and structural parts exposed to repetitive contact, abrasion or heavy impact. The anti-static properties help to reduce dust attraction and static build-up, making it particularly suitable for use in environments such as electronics handling, conveyor systems, material handling equipment and general fabrication workshops.
Product Features
- Available in a range of thicknesses including 10 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm and additional intermediate options to suit varied design and load requirements.
- Standard sheet size of 2000 mm length x 1000 mm width for easy handling, cutting and nesting of parts.
- Pressed and planed manufacturing for a flat, smooth surface finish that enhances appearance and reduces post-processing.
- Anti-static black polyethylene formulation helps to minimise static charge build-up and dust attraction.
- High wear resistance suitable for sliding surfaces, guides, liners and components subject to repetitive abrasion.
- Excellent impact strength to withstand knocks, drops and vibration in busy industrial environments.
- Good machinability with standard workshop tools for cutting, drilling and shaping into custom components.
Key Features and Benefits
- Enhances equipment life by providing a durable, wear-resistant surface that reduces friction and component damage.
- Improves safety and cleanliness in sensitive areas by limiting static build-up that can attract dust and debris.
- Reduces downtime and replacement costs thanks to its toughness and resistance to cracking or chipping under impact.
- Simplifies fabrication and installation, as sheets can be easily cut, drilled and machined to match specific designs.
- Offers consistent performance across a choice of thicknesses, allowing you to balance strength, weight and cost.
- Provides an aesthetically neat, uniform black finish that helps conceal marks and wear in high-use environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this polyethylene sheet be cut and machined with standard workshop tools?
Yes, the sheet can be cut, drilled and machined using common woodworking or plastic-working tools with sharp blades. It is easy to fabricate into custom sizes and shapes, though using appropriate speeds and feeds will help achieve the best edge finish.
Is the anti-static property suitable for use in electronics-related environments?
The anti-static characteristics are designed to help reduce static charge build-up and dust attraction, making the sheet suitable for work surfaces, guards and fixtures in areas where basic static control is beneficial. For highly sensitive electronic component protection, you should confirm that the performance meets your specific site and regulatory requirements.
How do I choose the right thickness for my application?
Thinner sheets such as 10 mm or 12 mm are generally suitable for lighter-duty panels, guards and liners, while thicker options like 15 mm, 20 mm or 25 mm are preferred where higher load-bearing capacity, stiffness or impact resistance is needed. Consider operating loads, span, mounting method and any impact or abrasion the sheet will encounter when selecting a thickness.
