Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is PE 500 / PE-HMW?

PE 500 (High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is a high-grade thermoplastic with a high molecular weight. It offers outstanding sliding properties and high wear resistance, making it ideal for demanding mechanical applications.

Is PE 500 safe for food contact?

Yes, PE 500 is physiologically safe and complies with FDA and EU regulations. It is widely used in the food industry, particularly as cutting boards for meat and fish processing.

Does PE 500 absorb water?

No, PE 500 has zero water absorption. Its minimal moisture absorption makes it highly dimensionally stable even in wet or humid environments.

What colors and sizes are available?

Standard sizes range from 1200*3000 mm up to 2100*6100 mm, with thicknesses starting from 10 mm up to 200 mm. Standard colors include white, black, blue, green, and others upon request.

What are the primary machining properties of PE 500?

PE 500 is extremely easy to machine. It is scratch-proof, cut-proof, impact-resistant, and displays a very low friction coefficient, reducing mechanical wear during processing.
