Project Description

UHMWPE Fender Facing Pad

Impact resistant UHMWPE sliding panel , UHMWPE plastic marine fender front pad , UHMWPE marine dock bumper


What is the UHMWPE material:

UHMW is an Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene with a molecular weight between 5 and 9 million, which is also commonly referred as UHMW, or UHMWPE.

UHMWPE  Advantages:

  • Self-lubricating and very low coefficient of friction;
  • Excellent chemical & corrosion resistant;
  • Stable chemical property and can endure the corrosion of all kind of corrosive medium and organic solvent in a certain range of temperature and humidity;
  • Superior impact resistant, noise-absorption and vibration-absorption;
  • Low water absorption <0.01% water absorption and not affected by temperature.
  • Temperature range: -269℃~+85℃;
  • Light, anti-impact, corrosion resistance, anti-ultraviolet ray, aging resistance, low friction, non-pollution, which is a good material for rubber fender face pad.

Where is the UHMWPE Fender Facing Pad applicable for:

  • Marine & Jetty fenders front panel
  • Quay wall protection
  • Belting for barges, tugboats & supply vessels
  • High-speed conveyors
  • Bumpers
  • Pile guards
  • Wear Strips
  • Guide rails
