is a modified UHMW-PE that is FDA and USDA approved safe for food contact and can be traced by standard metal detection equipment. TIVAR® MD has a nil moisture absorption rate reducing wear and bacterial growth.
Who manufactures Tivar?
Alro Plastics - TIVAR® 1000 UHMW - The standard for engineered polymers.
What is TIVAR UHMW?
TIVAR® Ceram P is composed of virgin polymer and premium additives, making it a shatter-resistant alternative to ceramics and is noted for its dimensional stability. It is suited for high-speed, high-load, and sliding-abrasion applications and can outwear AR steel, virgin UHMW, and other materials.
Is Tivar anti static?
TIVAR® ESD is an ideal material to use when potentially volatile conditions exist, such as those in grain elevators and munitions plants, effectively safeguarding against static discharges.
What is a Tivar?
TIVAR® 1000 sets the standard for engineered polymers with a unique combination of wear and corrosion resistance, low friction surface and impact strength. The material is resistant to chemical corrosion and moisture absorption, and retains key physical properties to -200°C.
What is Tivar eco plate?
UHMW TIVAR® ECO is plastic material suitable for machinery components, wear plates and guides. Depending on the application, UHMW ECO has an overall lower mechanical strength (90%) than the virgin TIVAR® 1000. This grade, partially composed of reprocessed PE-UHMW material can be machined easily.
Is Tivar 88 food grade?
TIVAR® Metal Detectable is a modified UHMW-PE that is FDA and USDA approved safe for food contact and can be traced by standard metal detection equipment.
What is TIVAR 88?
Tivar® 88 is a premium lining material for bulk handling. Tivar® 88 is noted for its performance in promoting bulk solids flow of cohesive or non-free flowing materials due to its low surface friction.
What is Tivar HOT?
Tivar HOT is a unique UHMW grade that has a dramatically higher continuous operating temperature (275F) than standard UHMW. Tivar HOT still has excellent wear and abrasion resistance, doesn't absorb moisture, has excellent chemical resistance and meets FDA, USDA and 3A guidelines.
