UHMW-PE Round Rod 2" diameter x 24" long,White

Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a very tough material, with the highest impact strength of any thermoplastic. It is highly resistant to corrosive chemicals, has extremely low moisture absorption, very low coefficient of friction, is self lubricating and is highly resistant to abrasion (15 times that of carbon steel).
