UHMW-PE GREEN ROD
B.I.R.S. Machine & Supply is a distributor of UHMW-PE Green Rod.
UHMW-PE green rod is manufacturered with reprocessed resin. UHMW-PE is ultra high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene round bar that has exceptionally high abrasion and impact resistance properties. It will outwear all other materials, including metals, nylons, urethanes and fluoroplastics in normal conditions. In corrosion resistance, it has the same qualities of other polyethylene plastics. UHMW-PE resists wear, friction and corrosion and thus it cuts maintenance costs, energy consumption and extends equipment life. UHMW-PE green rod is extruded with slight oversized diameters.
Applications include: ag chain sprockets, augers, belt sprockets, bushings, drive sprockets, flat wire sprockets, hanger bearings, handles, idlers, inserted bearings, locking collars, mill sprockets, pins, pulleys, rod stock, roll end bearings, roller chain sprockets, rollers, roller end lungs, self-aligning bearings, sheaves, spacers, spherical bearing inserts, sprockets, thrust washers, v-belt sheaves, washers, wear parts, wheels
Green UHMW rod is sold in 5 ft and 10 ft lengths. Shorter lengths are available minimums and small order charges apply.
