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 flights.

• High Resistance to Abrasion

- The most highly

abrasion resistant thermoplastic produced today. Will out last

all other materials used in conventional flights.

• Flexible and Resilient

- Has the ability to “flex 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 flight and trough.

Reduces work loads on drives and motors, while reducing wear

on flights 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 $$$.
