Description
The Premium High-Performance Extruded Green Rod, made from PE1000 (UHMWPE), is known for its exceptional properties. This material exhibits high chemical resistance, very high impact strength, and extremely low moisture absorption. It remains dimensionally stable even in humid environments, making it an excellent choice for various applications.
This rod can withstand a long-term service temperature range from -250°C to 80°C, with a short-term maximum service temperature reaching up to 130°C. With a water absorption factor of <0.01g/cm³, it is ideal for applications requiring durability and reliability.
Typical fields of application for this extruded rod include construction, drinking and wastewater technology, as well as bottling and food industries. The PE1000 rod is particularly well-suited for processes such as Billeting, Precision grinding, and CNC turning.
