UHMW Films  




 

UHMW Products

Hose Linings - Since DeWAL films are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, refrigerants, and solvents they are an excellent choice for hose linings. Their close tolerance dimensional quality allows for uniform wrap and adhesion. Should abrasive fluids cause concern, UHMW linings resist most erosive materials such as paints and powders. Their FDA compliance, resistance to steam sterilization, and near odor-free quality allow for use in food, beverage and pharmaceutical applications. All materials can be treated for bonding to most substrates and UHMW readily bonds without adhesives to nonpolar rubbers.


Hose Outer Coverings - The abrasion resistance and low friction features of DeWAL films promote extremely low wear and extended hose life. The optional static dissipation feature allows for safe spark-free operation where static discharge is a concern. Outstanding resistance to chemical attack and solvent penetration also protects hose quality and longevity. The superior dimensional uniformity of DeWAL films allows for flawless wrapping and bonding.

Rubber Profile Industry

Automotive and Architectural Weather Strip – Superior frictional properties and resistance to stick-slip make DeWAL PTFE and UHMW films an excellent choice for reliable runner bonding applications. These low coefficient of friction materials provide a coating for high-wear areas. This high degree of wear resistance combined with smooth operation and long flex-life in dynamic use assure dependability and freedom from premature warranty failures. Some films are also specifically designed and recommended to withstand UV light to increase service use. Since DeWAL offers a range of surface treatment options, all films can be made bondable to a variety of substrates. These products can also be formed to a variety of wear surfaces to eliminate failures commonly associated with chafing and fretting.



Applications in the Belt Industry

Non-Stick Release Surfaces – Low-friction, bondable UHMW is an excellent choice for top surface layers in belt laminates. DeWAL UHMW forms a superior bond directly to non-polar rubber substrates. The tight-tolerance gauge of the material also eliminates concern for tolerance stack-up in multi-layer laminates, and the flawlessly smooth surface assures belt quality. Films are available to provide the advantages of static-dissipation, FDA and USDA compliance and color-coding.

‘Sandwich’ Belt Reinforcing – DeWAL UHMW can be bonded between layers of rubber and other fabrics to strengthen flexible belts and increase service life.
