PE500 also known as HMWPE, High Molecular Weight Polyethylene, has a high impact strength supported by good abrasion and chemical resistance. Mainly used in repetitive applications wear food contact are concerns.
- High Impact Strength
- Temperature range -60°C to +80°C
- Low Moisture Absorption
- Food Safe
- Low Coefficient of Friction
- Noise reduction
- Available in colours
- Wear resistance
- Lower abrasion resistance than PE1000
- Difficult to Weld and Bond
- Limited UV resistance, without additive
- Susceptibility to stress cracking
- Lower Friction and impact resistance compared to PE1000
