Plastic Rail Guide Tunnel Wear Strips Polyethylene Plastic Wear Strips
Product Description
Material handling processes often utilize machinery with many moving parts. After time, the points of contact between moving parts can wear down and cause disruptions in the workflow. Wear strips and components act as a sacrificial link in the system to prevent damage to the critical components of the equipment.
Wear strips and components are often made of plastic, which provides protection from surface marring and scratching, noise reduction between mating parts, and elimination of slipping and sticking amid sliding parts. One of the most common plastic materials used in wear strip applications is UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene). UHMW's unique properties including high impact/abrasion resistance, self-lubrication, long wear life and ease of machining make it ideal for this application. Wear strips and components are resistant to corrosion and chemicals and able to keep moving parts free of external grease and lubricants. Wear strips and components are commonly used with bearings, slides, gears, cams, bushings, and rollers.
Xinxing stocks a large variety of materials for wear strips and components, including UHMW in a wide variety of thicknesses and sheet sizes. The team at Xinxing is knowledgeable in all of our product offerings and can help you choose the best materials for your project. For more challenging applications where the standard materials just won't do, our team of experts will work closely with you to find the best solutions.
UHMWPE guide rails have all the advantages of UHMWPE, UHMWPE track in conveyor track, protective curve track, etc. And we have developed many types UHMWPE track, all available in several grades of UHMW plastic. UHMW chain guides extend chain life, reduce noise and friction. You can order them in standard sizes, or have a custom order.
The canning, packing and bottling industries often utilize our conveyor components for their ease of use,
compatibility with other European suppliers, resistance to abrasion and low noise properties. Machined tracks offer a convenient and easy way to guide side flexing chain around a corner.
Made from Virgin UHMWPE they have a low coefficient of friction, silent operation and permit high speed lines.
Channel Style, Raised Track, Channel with a Raised Track, Mounting Channel
Chain guides are available in the channel style, raised track, and as a channel with a raised track. These chain guides are also available as inserts for mounting channels. The channels are available as galvanized or stainless steel. A mounting channel is welded or bolted into place and allows the UHMW to expand and contract without buckling.
T Type Plastic Chain Linear Guides
UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is thermoplastic engineering plastics, which is normally used in the area of marine, transport, coal-mining, machinery, paper-making, textile industry, etc.
The advantage of UHMW chain guide:
(1) abrasion highest plastic, seven times higher than carbon steel, four times higher than PTFE.
(2) Impact strength plastic in the first column, 2 times higher than that of polycarbonate, 5 times higher than ABS.
(3) self-lubricating performance equivalent to F4, add the oil than steel and brass after high lubricity.
(4) Corrosion resistance: at a certain temperature and humidity within the ability of various corrosive media, and the role of the organic solvent medium, high chemical stability.
(5) nonstick surface of product compared with other materials is not easy to attach, strong anti-adhesion properties.
(6) of impact resistance, impact energy absorbing the highest in all plastics, nylon 66 10 times 8 times PTFE.
(7) low temperature resistance, in liquid nitrogen (-196 °C), still malleable, this low-temperature toughness is all plastics that are not performance.
(8) completely non-toxic health: Is the U.S. Drug and Food (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) approved for use in contact with food and drugs occasion of the material.
