Webbing made of UHMWPE is very light, weighing just 2.4 grams per foot. It’s corrosion and impact-resistant, making it a durable strap with a breaking strength of 1700 pounds. It’s also anti-aging and works well in cold climates.
UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) webbing is some of the strongest webbing woven. Compared with other PE fiber, UHMWPE fiber for Rope/Net will endow the finished products with a higher availability of tenacity, higher abrasion resistance for both wet and dry aspects.
Compared with other synthetic fibers, including nylon, polyester, and aramid fiber, UHMWPE fiber has the highest strength-weight ratio. Its strength is 10 times that of the same weight of steel. When the rope made of UHMWPE fiber falls into the water, it will float on the water and easy to be found because its density is smaller than water; as a result, the rope can be picked up before sinking or intertwining together.
Besides original white UHMWPE fiber, can also offer pre-dyed ones with various colors, including but not limited to Black, Blue, Orange, Green, Yellow etc. And could also customize colored UHMWPE fiber based on the requirements and applications of customers. It offers maximum strength combined with a minimum weight. It does not smell and it is not toxic.
In current engineering polymers, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has the highest impact toughness, and its impact strength is 10 times that of PE100 at room temperature. The impact resistance performance improves as the ambient temperature drops.
Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has excellent corrosion resistance and can withstand the vast majority of corrosive media and organic solvent erosion. It can be used in concentrations of less than 80% concentrated hydrochloric acid and less than 75% concentrated nitric acid, and its performance is quite stable.
