* Industry standard testing method using a slurry of 60 %
aluminum oxide and 40 % water at a rotation speed of
1750 rpm for 2 hours. Results indicate the ability of each
material, in relation to Natural (=100), to resist abrasion
under typical UHMW-PE applications. A lower number
indicates better abrasion resistance.
