Low Melt Polyethylene fibers are used in heat set applications for thermal bonding, and in refractory or foundry applications to aid in the release of gases and pressure buildup. High Modulus Polyethylene (or UHMwPE) fibers are used in applications which require high impact or abrasion resistance. Our precision cut specialty Polyethylene fibers are available in the following varieties:
Type | Denier per Filament (dpf) | Standard Lengths | Click to View: | |
