Drag Conveyor Flights
UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight) POLYETHYLENE
• Maximum Strength
- Practically indestructible. Will take
more abuse than rubber, nylon, aluminum, neoprene, high
density polyethylene, and combination steel with insert fights.
• High Resistance to Abrasion
- The most highly
abrasion resistant thermoplastic produced today. Will out last all
other materials used in conventional fights.
• Flexible and Resilient
- Has the ability to “fex and give”
tremendously to pass an obstruction, then return to its original
shape.
• Low Coefficient of Friction
- This means less
resistance to the sliding action between the fight and trough.
Reduces work loads on drives and motors, while reducing wear
on fights and trough.
• Chemically Inert
- Impervious to most acids and alkalies.
Will not rust or corrode.
• FDA and USDA Approved
- The white (virgin) UHMW
polyethylene meets the requirements of the Food Additives Law
and Regulation No. 177.1520. It is ideal for food handling.
• Wide Temperature Range
- Operating range from -60°F
to +225°F/ -51°C to +107°C continuous. Up to +250°F/ +121°C
intermittently.
• Low Product Build-Up
- Naturally slick surface resists
buildup of moist or sticky products.
• Economical
- Low initial cost plus longer life and less
downtime = savings $$$.
