UHMWPE Fender pads and fenders are produced by a sintering process either from virgin or from reclaimed material (approx. 70% reclaimed + 30% virgin material - also named double-sintered or blended UHMW-PE).
UHMW-PE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) combines highest strength with wear resistance and consequently provides the best durability of all available Polyethylene products.

UHMWPE Flat Fender Pad UHMWPE Corner Fender Pad UHMWPE Edge Fender Pad Special drawing and custom property configurations are supported. |
| OEM Service: | Various OEM Services available, including PE Block, UHMWPE PE Impact bar, PE Strip, UHMWPE rod, and other PE parts. |
UHMW-PE Flat Fender pad, UHMW-PE Corner Fender pad, and UHMW-PE Edge Fender pad are all available:
1. Excellent abrasion resistance
Marine fender pad of UHMWPE material outwears hardened steel. Cuts hour-glass wear on pilings from vertically moving "camels".
2. No moisture absorption
Marine fender pad of UHMWPE material experiences no swelling or deterioration from water permeation.
3. Chemical and Corrosion Resistant
Marine fender pad of UHMWPE material withstands salt water, fuel, and chemical spills. Chemically inert and does not leach chemicals into waterways, protecting fragile ecosystems.
4. Performs in Weather Extremes
Sub-zero conditions do not degrade performance. Marine fender pad of UHMWPE material retains key physical properties to -260 centigrade. UHMWPE material is UV-resistant, which increases wear life in seaport exposures.
