Description
UHMWPE fiber is one of the strongest and lighest fibers available. A bright white polyethylene, it is 15 times stronger than steel, more durable than polyester and has a specific strength that is 40% greater than aramid fiber. With outstanding toughness and extraordinary visco-elastic properties, UHMWPE fiber can withstand high load strain rate velocities.
Properties of UHMWPE Fiber:
-
One of the highest strength to weight ratios of any manmade fiber
-
Oustanding toughness and visco-elasti properties
-
Light enough to float
-
High resistance to chemicals, water and ultraviolet light
-
Excellent vibration damping, flex fatigue and internal fiber friction characteristics
-
Low elongation
-
High resistance to abrasion
-
Resists corrosion
-
Low dielectric constant
