UHMWPE Dewatering Element

The UHMWPE dewatering element here is used as suction box cover for paper machinery. These UHMWPE machined parts have an extremely smooth surface with an exceptionally low friction coefficient, a low level of adhesion, and excellent chemical resistance.

For machines with speeds up to 800 m/min
Xinxing’s ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene UHMWPE dewatering elements set themselves apart with the special sintering press procedure used to manufacture them. This process for producing engineered plastic components ensures an outstanding service life for the plastic parts and creates a low coefficient of friction.

Advantages of UHMWPE Dewatering Elements
1. The measured coefficient of friction for the UHMWPE is 0.08 which is low compared to other plastics where the average friction is between 0.16 and 0.20, or cross grain wood (0.3).
2. UHMWPE dewatering elements allow for faster machine speeds thanks to a low coefficient of friction
3. This range of UHMWPE parts has high impact strength and will not break or splinter under normal operating conditions. Temperature resistant up to 1000℃.
