Anti-Static UHMWPE Parts are machined from ESD-grade ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene sheet and rod. Also referred to as ESD UHMWPE parts or anti-static UHMWPE machined components. Surface resistivity is 10⁶–10⁹ Ω per IEC 61340-2-3. CNC milling and turning from stock up to 2000 mm × 1000 mm × 80 mm. Standard dimensional tolerance is ±0.10 mm. Tighter tolerances to ±0.05 mm quoted on request. Standard colours are black and grey. Continuous operating temperature is -50 °C to 80 °C.
Applications
- Semiconductor wafer handling fixtures and trays
- Electronics assembly jigs and PCB transport rails
- Cleanroom equipment guides and wear strips
- Explosive atmosphere conveyor components (ATEX zones)
- Powder handling chute liners and hopper inserts
- Medical device assembly fixtures and spacers

Key Performance Data
- Surface resistivity 10⁶–10⁹ Ω prevents electrostatic charge accumulation without relying on humidity.
- Static decay time under 2 seconds from 5000 V to 50 V. ESD property is permanent and volume-distributed.
- Coefficient of friction 0.12–0.18 against steel. No stick-slip. Protects sensitive components from mechanical damage.
- Abrasion loss ≤90 mm³ (sand-slurry per ASTM G65). Outlasts nylon and acetal in sliding contact by 2–3×.
- Water absorption <0.01%. No change in surface resistivity after 96 h at 40 °C / 95% RH.
Certifications & Compliance
- ISO 9001:2015 — certified quality management system.
- RoHS (Directive 2011/65/EU) — compliant.
- IEC 61340-5-1 — meets ESD control programme requirements.
- Third-party test reports for surface resistivity and static decay available upon request.
