DENSETEC HMW

Densetec HMW is the extruded material needed when Densetec HDPE is not enough and Polyslick UHMW is not necessary. Densetec HMW has higher impact strength than HDPE and is more abrasion resistant. The fact that Densetec HMW is more wear resistant than standard HDPE, and is more economical than standard UHMW makes it the ideal material for wear applications and machined parts. It may also be used in applications such as snowplow linings and fertilizer spreaders.
