About UHMWPE Fabric

In gereral, UHMWPE Fabrics included woven, knitted and non-woven fabrics, which were made of UHMWPE fibers with different producing techniques. All of them have the excellent features of high tensile strength, abrasion resistance and cut risistance, much better than ordinary polyester fabrics, nylon fabrics and the others.

Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a type of polyolefin that is composed of very long chains of polyethylene with a very high quality of parallel orientation and high level of crystallinity. The extremely long polymer chains enable load transfer by strengthening intermolecular interactions. UHMWPE fibers are manufactured in a gel spinning process.

Key Advantage of UHMWPE:

Ultra-high tensile strength,

Excellent strength to weight ratio, which means strong and light

High abrasion resistance, good cut resistance

Low specific gravity, float on water

UV stable and long-term serve in seawater

Chemically inert except for strong oxidizing acids

Resistant to fatigue & internal friction

ONLY DISADVANTAGE: CAN NOT BEAR HIGH TEMPERATURE, NOT MORE THAN 120C/248F TEMPORARILY. RECOMMENDED LONG-TERM WORKING TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 80C/176F.

FAQ:

1.Are Impact a manufacturer or a distributor?

We are a Chinese manufacturer of fabric, webbing, rope and thread, specilized in frontier high performance fibers such as UHMWPE, aramid, PBO, Polyimide, etc.

2.I have the sample and don’t know where to find a supplier

Send us the pictures and the working conditions as well, the more specifying the better. We’ll deliver the applicative sample if we have, or develop a new one that meets your requirements.

3.What info should I provide if I wanna get a specific quotation?

Basic information for quote: material, size(wide, thick, diameter etc), strength, color and quantity. Besides, If you have the real sample of the goods you asked, the best way is send a little piece to us for referencen.

5.Is there a chance to help us developing new composite that does not exist in current market?

We are very glad to work together with your company to develop the new product, it also is our corporate purpose. As a professional manufacturer of functional fabric, webbing, rope and thread, we focusing on the long-term.

6.How can I get free samples?

For existed goods – we produced previously and kept a few in stock for samples – small pieces of Samples are free, except the courier. It will be better that you have an IMPORT A/C of DHL/FedEx/UPS/TNT, etc. then you could place the collet order from your side, and bill the freight fees under your A/C. Otherwise, you could pay the freight (about 20$, more or less) in advance by PayPal, which is preferred by most purchasers.

More specifically, free samples include A4-paper size of fabrics, 1 yard of thin rope and webbing, 4″ to 6″ of heavy-duty webbing and cordage, about 50 yards of riving thread on a spool.
