Usa Industrials BULK-PS-UHMW-50 Uhmw Polyethylene Sheet

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-UHMW-50 is a solid UHMW (ultra-high-molecular-weight) polyethylene plastic sheet cut to 24 inches long by 24 inches wide by 2 inches thick and weighing 10 pounds. UHMW polyethylene is recognized across industrial trades for its outstanding abrasion resistance, impact resistance, and low coefficient of friction. This sheet stock is sold as a single piece and is intended for fabrication or direct installation by machinists, maintenance technicians, and industrial fabricators working on wear-surface, guarding, or housing applications.

UHMW sheet stock of this type is commonly used in manufacturing and processing environments. Typical applications include conveyor wear strips and guide rails, machine guards, equipment housings, chute liners, and sliding contact surfaces. The 2-inch thickness makes this sheet well suited for heavy-duty wear pads or structural plastic components where thinner sheet would not provide adequate service life. Both shop and field fabricators can cut, drill, and machine this material using standard woodworking or metalworking tooling.

Key Features

• Outstanding abrasion and wear resistance for high-contact surface applications
• High impact resistance suitable for machine guard and housing fabrication
• 2-inch thick stock provides substantial material for deep machining, slotting, or stepped profiles
• White color allows visual inspection of surface wear over time
• Single-piece unit (24 inches x 24 inches) ready for cut-to-size fabrication
• Low friction surface reduces drag on conveyor and sliding contact assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UHMW polyethylene sheet for industrial fabrication use in conveyor systems, machine guarding, and equipment housing applications where a 2-inch thick plastic wear or structural component is required.

Installation Notes

Cutting, drilling, and shaping should be performed by a qualified machinist or fabricator using appropriate personal protective equipment and dust collection. Standard carbide or bi-metal tooling is recommended for clean edges. Secure the sheet firmly before machining to prevent movement. Consult applicable facility safety and equipment codes before integrating fabricated components into machinery or conveyors.
