Product Information

Chemical Resistance: UHMW tape remains stable and reliable, even in the presence of various chemicals, ensuring its efficacy in challenging environments. Yes, UHMW-PE is both FDA and USDA approved for use in food processing and medical applications. How do you differentiate UHMW from HDPE? For applications where a low co-efficient of friction is required and no real temperature is involved the UHMW polyethylene (ultra high molecular weight) tape is ideally suited. Friction properties: Both UHMW tape and PTFE tape have excellent low-friction properties, but PTFE has an exceptionally low coefficient of friction. PTFE is often referred to as “the most slippery substance” due to its extremely low friction, which makes it ideal for applications where reduced friction is crucial. TIVAR® is an acronym for Tough Inert Very Abrasion Resistant. What are the key properties of TIVAR® UHMW-PE?

Wear and abrasion resistance– UHMW tape is utilized in applications where high levels of wear and abrasion resistance are required. It can be applied to components subjected to sliding, rubbing, or impact, such as wear strips, skid plates, guide rails, or cutting surfaces. Chemical resistance: PTFE tape has excellent chemical resistance and is known for its non-reactivity with most chemicals and solvents. UHMW tape also has good chemical resistance but may be more susceptible to certain chemicals compared to PTFE. Noise reduction and vibration dampening– UHMW tape is effective in reducing noise and dampening vibrations between surfaces. It is commonly used in applications such as automotive interiors, appliances, industrial machinery, and equipment to minimize noise and vibration levels.TIVAR® is the brand name (from Poly-Hi) for a special formulation of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE). UHMW-PE is a unique family of high-density polyethylene with a molecular weight 3 million or higher. UHMW-PE is a high performance polymer with a high melt viscosity that can be extruded, fabricated or compression molded. What does TIVAR® stand for? Exceptional Durability: Its robust nature ensures long-term durability, capable of withstanding harsh conditions and maintaining effectiveness over extended periods. UHMW has no UL recognition. It would be HB on UL-1 – that is slow burning (less than 3″ per minute). How can you tell if a sample of UHMW contains regrind?

Sliding and friction reduction – UHMW tape has excellent low-friction properties, making it ideal for applications that require smooth sliding or reduced friction. It can be applied to drawers, sliding surfaces, conveyor belts, chutes, and other components to facilitate easy movement. We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and in particular for the following reasons: UHMW tapes are a nice alternative for Skived PTFE tapes when elevated higher temperatures are not present. All of our PTFE tapes provide high tensile strength, low elongation and high temperature & high dielectric strength resistance. Automotive Sector: In automotive applications, this tape is used for noise reduction, protecting surfaces from abrasion, and providing a smooth, low-friction surface for moving parts.You may choose to restrict the collection or use of your personal information in the following ways: Surface protection – UHMW tape is frequently applied to surfaces to protect them from scratches, abrasion, and wear. It can be used on equipment, machinery, tools, and surfaces such as countertops, tables, or floors.

Yes, it behaves much like regular HDPE. The minimum temperature is 400 degrees F and the minimum pressure of 300 psi is highly recommended. What percentage of parent strength of UHMW can be attained?Medical Field: Its biocompatible nature finds use in medical equipment to reduce friction and protect sensitive components, ensuring smooth operation and longevity. UHMW Film Tape 5423 is often used in general industrial applications to help control squeaks and rattles due to vibration or wear of metal and plastic materials. Our UHMW-PE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) film tape provides good chemical resistance and excellent abrasion resistance that helps ensure a long wear life. Due to its abrasion-, corrosion-, chemical- and moisture-resistant properties, TIVAR® is commonly used in applications where conditions may be too harsh for other materials. It is a cost-effective high performance polymer used to produce low cost, high quality parts. How does TIVAR® compare to other materials? Not for most applications. The reason is the large d ifference between the coefficient of thermal expansion of metal and UHMW puts high stresses on the bond if the bond encounters temperature extremes. What are my installation options for UHMW? UHMW manufacturers have done extensive research on numerous additives that can enhance a property of UHMW-PE thereby providing customized products to meet customer requirements. Is TIVAR® H.O.T weldable?

The sustained high temperature use is 180 degrees F and the intermittent use is 200 degrees F. Does UHMW degrade at higher temperatures? The use of UHMW tape spans across multiple industries, each leveraging its unique properties for various purposes: Hydrogen and nitrogen don't affect it, but oxygen could. Are there any high performance blends that can be added to UHMW-PE?UHMW PE Film Tape 5421 is often used in general industrial applications to help control squeaks and rattles due to vibration or wear of metal and plastic materials. Our UHMW-PE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) film tape provides good chemical resistance and excellent abrasion resistance that helps ensure a long wear life.
