Original Material "S" ® plus+ TLS [FS]

1 of 13 products in this brand
Original Material "S" ® plus+ TLS [FS] offers for the first time a material that can be used in situations for which Original Material "S"® was not suited. Even at high operating temperatures of up to120°C for short periods of time and constant service temperatures of up to100°C, the molecular structure of this ultra-high molecular weight low-densitypolyethylene does not change. This is because the thermal oxidation point has been increased through the use of a newly developed additive. "S" plus+® TLS is thus suitable for a wide range of industrial applications that are subject to sustained high temperatures. Industrial applications are often subject to high temperatures at which Original Material "S"® could previously not be used. Such applications require materials with familiar characteristics such as wear, impact, and chemical resistance. The new A member of the S plus family Production based on PE-UHMW SG 1.1.
