Product Detail hdpe

HDPE is a cost-effective, semi-crystalline thermoplastic widely used in industrial settings for its good strength-to-weight ratio, machinability, and chemical resistance. It is commonly available in flat sheet and rod form and used in applications requiring moderate wear resistance and structural stability.

Key Properties

• Density: 0.93–0.97 g/cm³
   
• Working Temperature: -50°C to +80°C
   
• Tensile Strength: ~4,000 psi
   
• Machinability: Excellent (saws, routers, mills)
   
• Chemical Resistance: Broad spectrum, including acids and bases
   
• Moisture Absorption: <0.01%
   
• UV Resistance: Limited (can be UV-stabilized)

Common Industrial Application

• Fabricated tanks and chemical containment systems
   
• Cutting boards and food-grade machine components
   
• Piping support blocks and spacers
   
• Protective pads and backer plates
   
• Die-cut parts and low-load structural panels

Benefits 

• Lightweight and easy to machine
   
• Inexpensive material for structural or low-wear parts
   
• Excellent for chemical exposure environments
   
• FDA- and USDA-compliant grades available
   
• Available in large flat sheets and rods as solid form
