Orbilan Kunstsoffwerk GmnH is based
out of in Rosendahl-Osterwick, Germany and has over 20 years of
experience working with technical plastics. The companies main
strengths lie in their flexibility and high standards of manufacturing
quality.
Orbilan suuplies Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), also known as high-modulus polyethylene (HMPE) or high-performance polyethylene (HPPE), is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene.
- It is a very tough material, with the highest impact strength of any thermoplastic presently made. It is highly resistant to corrosive chemicals, with exception of oxidizing acids.
It has extremely low moisture absorption, has a very low coefficient of friction, is self-lubricating, and is highly resistant to abrasion (15 times more resistant to abrasion than carbon steel).
Its coefficient of friction is significantly lower than that of nylon and acetal, and is comparable to that of Teflon, but UHMWPE has better abrasion resistance than Teflon.
