UHMWPE Plastic Sheet Supplier
Among all plastic sheets, Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) sheets have the best wear resistance.
The higher the molecular weight of polyethylene, the more wear-resistant it is. Its impact strength will also increase as the molecular weight increases (reaching a peak at around 2 million).
Our UHMWPE sheets are mostly processed by compression molding (sometimes extrusion is also used, but the capacity is very low).
The sizes of our UHMWPE sheets are as follows:
- Width: 1500 mm ~ 2100 mm
- Length: 3000 mm ~ 6000 mm
- Thickness: 3 mm ~ 200 mm
- Custom Sizes Also Acceptable

UHMW Sheet Thickness
1/8 inch UHMW Sheet
Suitable for applications where a low-profile, lightweight material is required. It may be used for lining chutes, conveyor components, and other surfaces to reduce friction and abrasion.
1/4 inch UHMW Sheet
1/2 inch UHMW Sheet
Used in applications where moderate to heavy-duty abrasion and impact resistance are essential. Such as material handling, conveyor components, and bulk material handling chutes.
3/4 inch UHMW Sheet
Become more robust and suitable for applications with higher impact loads and abrasion. Commonly used in applications such as snowplow blades, bumper pads, and wear strips.
1 inch UHMW Sheet
Used in heavy-duty applications where extreme wear resistance and impact strength are essential. Common uses include dock bumpers, guide rails, and machinery wear plates.
2 inch UHMW Sheet
Typically used in applications with extreme abrasion, impact, or sliding conditions. Common applications include conveyor belt skirting, chute linings, and as a heavy wear component in machinery.
UHMW Sheet Color
White UHMW Sheet
White is the natrual and commonly used color of virgin UHMWPE sheet. It tends to reflect sunlight better than darker colors, which can be beneficial in outdoor applications.
Black UHMW Sheet
Black UHMWPE sheet is generally less resistant to UV radiation, but it absorb more heat than lighter colors. This could be a consideration in applications where temperature control is crucial.
Green UHMW Sheet
The color green itself may not impart significantly different properties compared to other colors. Green UHMWPE sheet can be used for easy identification or color coding in certain applications.
