Definition of UHMWPE Thread

Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber yarn with it’s density of 0,97g/cm³, a modulus of 1150 cN/dtex and a tensile strength of 32 cN/dtex is a perfect yarn for high end applications. The UHMWPE fiber (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Yarn) has 15 times stronger than steel and 40% stronger than aramid when weight for weight basis. It is the strongest yarn today for making cut-resistance gloves, high-strength ropes, and bulletproof fabrics. Its tenacity at breaking up to 45g/D and has goods performance on anti-UV, anti-chemicals, and anti-cut.

Typical Technical Properties

  • Ultra-high strength: The strength is extremely high, with a strength 10-15 times that of high-quality steel of the same mass.
  • Extreme lightweight: With a density less than that of water (0.97g/cm³), it is one of the few high-performance fibers capable of floating on the water’s surface.
  • Excellent Protection: Excellent resistance to impact and cutting. Its impact resistance and energy absorption can reach 2.6 times that of aramid.
  • Weather and corrosion resistance: It has strong resistance to acid, alkali, salt, seawater, and various organic solvents, with extremely low moisture absorption and good stability under ultraviolet light.

Main Features

Application

UHMWPE thread covers almost all fields with strict requirements for strength.

  • Safety protection: bulletproof vest, bulletproof helmet, anti cutting gloves, stab proof clothing.
  • Marine engineering: ship mooring lines, deep-sea aquaculture cages, bridge lifting slings, deep-sea cables.
  • Aerospace: spacecraft structural components, parachute ropes, aircraft wingtips, airships, etc.
  • Outdoor sports: fishing line (PE line), hiking rope, kite/paraglider line, sailboat rigging, etc.
  • Medical: Orthopedic surgical sutures, artificial ligaments, artificial joint components.
  • Civilian industry: cutting resistant seats, anti-theft backpacks, high-performance ski suits, conveyor belts.
