AKU®-LEN PE-HD SOLID RODS or ROUND BARS in PE-HD

PE-HD (high density polyethylene), PE-UHMW (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) and PE-ELS (polyethylene electrostatically dissipative) solid rods:

• Versatile,
• durable and
• Technically sophisticated plastic profiles

The PE-HD, PE-UHMW and PE-ELS solid rods represent high-quality plastic profiles made from different types of polyethylene, each with specific properties.

Features and applications of these solid bars:

PE-HD solid rods:

• High density:
• PE-HD is characterized by its high density, which results in excellent strength and rigidity.
• Good chemical resistance:
• They are resistant to many chemicals, acids and bases.
• Wear resistance:
• PE-HD solid rods show good resistance to wear and abrasion.
• Food safe:
• Suitable for applications in the food industry due to its food-safe properties.
• Applications:
• Frequently used in the chemical industry, in container construction, for wear parts and in food processing.

PE-UHMW solid rods:

• Ultra-high molecular weight:
  PE-UHMW is characterized by an extremely high molecular mass, which results in exceptional wear and impact resistance.
• Self-lubricating:
  Due to its molecular structure, PE-UHMW is self-lubricating and exhibits low friction.
• Good shock absorption:
  The solid bars offer high shock absorption and are ideal for applications with high mechanical loads.
• Chemical resistance:
  PE-UHMW is resistant to many chemicals and aggressive substances.
• Applications:
  Typical areas of application are conveyor systems, slideways, conveyor systems, wear plates and components in the food industry.

PE-ELS solid rods:

• Electrostatic dissipation:
  PE-ELS solid bars are formulated to dissipate electrostatic charges, enabling their use in electronic and explosive environments.
• Good chemical resistance:
  Like PE-HD, PE-ELS solid rods also exhibit good resistance to chemicals.
• Food-safe:
  In some formulations they are food-safe and can be used in the food industry.
• Applications:
  Commonly used in electronic manufacturing, hazardous areas, laboratories and other environments where electrostatic discharge must be avoided.

The PE-HD, PE-UHMW and PE-ELS solid rods offer a wide range of possible applications due to their different properties.

From high strength and wear resistance to electrostatic discharge capability, they can meet the requirements of various industries.
