Usa Industrials BULK-PS-UHMW-58 Uhmw Sheet 1in 12x24 White

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-UHMW-58 is a flat stock sheet machined from ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), a dense thermoplastic known for exceptional impact resistance, low friction, and chemical inertness. The sheet measures 1 inch thick, 12 inches wide, and 24 inches long, and weighs approximately 10 pounds. It is white in color and held to a tight dimensional tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches. Fabricators, machinists, and maintenance technicians use UHMWPE sheet as a raw material for cutting custom wear pads, guides, liners, and structural spacers in both industrial and trade applications.

UHMWPE flat stock at this thickness is commonly used in food processing equipment, conveyor systems, pump components, and piping support applications. The material is well suited for environments where metal-to-metal contact must be eliminated or where a self-lubricating bearing surface is needed. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors also use UHMWPE sheet for pipe support blocks and insulation shields in residential and commercial mechanical systems.

Key Features

• UHMWPE material provides low-friction, self-lubricating surface without additives
• 1 inch thickness suitable for heavy wear pads, structural spacers, and bearing blocks
• Tight dimensional tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches supports precision fabrication
• Chemical resistance makes it suitable for wet, corrosive, and food-contact environments
• White color aids visual inspection in food processing and clean-room fabrication contexts

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UHMWPE flat stock sheet for custom fabrication and machining into wear pads, guides, liners, spacers, and related components in industrial and mechanical trade applications.

Installation Notes

Cutting and shaping UHMWPE sheet is typically performed by machinists or fabricators using standard woodworking or metalworking tools including table saws, band saws, and drill presses. Secure the sheet firmly before cutting to prevent movement. When used as pipe support blocks or mechanical spacers in a building system, verify that the final component meets applicable code requirements under the IPC or IFGC as appropriate. No welding, soldering, or open-flame processes should be applied directly to this material.
