Polyethylene
A lightweight, durable, and versatile engineering material for a wide range of industrial applications
Polyethylene is one of the most widely used thermoplastic materials in industry thanks to its unique combination of lightness, wear resistance, chemical inertness, and excellent sliding properties.
It is virtually inert to most chemical agents, does not absorb liquids, and is suitable for food-contact applications.
Available in different grades (PE300, PE500, PE1000), each designed to meet specific performance requirements.
Polyethylene grades we machine
PE 300
PE300 is the basic grade of high-density polyethylene. It stands out for its light weight and excellent resistance to wear, abrasion, and impact, even at extremely low temperatures.
Its low coefficient of friction makes it ideal for applications where the material is subject to continuous sliding. It is chemically inert and does not absorb moisture.
Application fields
Food processing, industrial automation, marine, medical, chemical, construction, bottling.
PE 500
PE500 is an intermediate grade that combines the elasticity of PE300 with increased rigidity and improved mechanical properties. It provides superior wear resistance and excellent sliding performance.
Its enhanced structure makes it suitable for more demanding mechanical applications, while maintaining compatibility with food and chemical environments.
Application fields
Food processing, industrial automation, marine, medical, chemical, construction, bottling.
PE 1000
PE 1000 represents the pinnacle in terms of impact resistance and sliding capability. Less rigid compared to lower grades, it is perfect for dynamic applications where durability, flexibility, and low abrasion are required.
It is often used as a replacement for metal components subjected to heavy mechanical stress.
Application fields
Food processing, industrial automation, marine, medical, chemical, construction, bottling.
