APPLICATIONS 

OK 1000 – Materials for all applications

OK 1000 (UHMW-PE) is truly the material for every application. This material has many properties suitable for making it versatile.

It has great abrasion resistance, high impact resistance and excellent slipability making it ideal for machine, plant and transportation engineering. It is also ideal for use in harbors and impact applications, as a lining for protected areas and materials for the sporting industry.

OK 1000 is stable at low temperatures and is resistant to most chemicals. It also has a high abrasion resistance

OK 1000 (UHMWPE) (Virgin) is a low pressure superplasticizer (molecular weight 3.5-10.5 million g / mol).

OK 1000-R (UHMW PE) (Reprocessed) is a low pressure polyethylene resin with recycled materials.
