Usa Industrials BULK-PS-UHMW-944 Uhmwpe Plastic Bar

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-UHMW-944 is a solid rectangular bar stock made from ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), a high-density thermoplastic known for its exceptional abrasion resistance, low friction surface, and high impact strength. Measuring 1/8 inch thick, 3/4 inch wide, and 60 inches long, this white bar is suited for fabrication, machining, and custom part production. UHMWPE maintains its properties across a wide service temperature range and resists many chemicals, making it a reliable choice for demanding industrial and mechanical applications. Maintenance technicians, fabricators, and mechanical contractors commonly work with this material.

This bar stock is used across a broad range of industrial, commercial, and trade applications where low-friction or wear-resistant plastic components are needed. Typical uses include slide rails, wear strips, guides, spacers, and custom-machined parts. Its rectangular profile allows straightforward cutting, drilling, and shaping with standard shop tools. The white color allows for easy visual inspection of wear over time. Applications span HVAC equipment fabrication, plumbing support components, pool and water treatment equipment, and general mechanical assemblies.

Key Features

• UHMWPE material provides high abrasion resistance and low surface friction
• Rectangular profile at 1/8 inch thick and 3/4 inch wide for consistent, machineable geometry
• 60-inch length allows cutting to custom dimensions with minimal waste
• White color provides visual contrast for wear inspection
• Chemical-resistant surface suits wet, corrosive, or outdoor environments
• Lightweight at 0.2 pounds per bar for easy handling and transport

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UHMWPE rectangular bar stock suitable for fabrication and replacement part machining across a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications. Consult your project specifications to confirm dimensional suitability before cutting.

Installation Notes

This bar stock is typically machined, cut, or drilled by fabricators or maintenance technicians using standard woodworking or plastics-rated cutting tools. Avoid excessive heat during machining to prevent deformation of the thermoplastic material. Deburr all cut edges before assembly to prevent wear on mating surfaces. No adhesive bonding is recommended without surface preparation, as UHMWPE has a naturally low surface energy.
