UHMW Sliding Plate – 15 x 16

Great for use in all your tree house projects to prevent metal to metal or wood on wood contact. This 1/2″ thick sliding plate has countersunk holes so it can easily be attached to a tribeam, joist, or header. We use these plates to reduce friction with builds that will be impacted by tree movement.

Reprocessed UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is a machinable thermoplastic that serves as an economical and environmentally friendly option for non-food applications. Like virgin UHMW, reprocessed UHMW is a highly durable, cost-efficient, and versatile material with superior impact and chemical resistance. Its durability, extremely low coefficient of friction, and inherent lubricity make UHMW ideal for applications where high levels of friction are likely to arise.

Reprocessed UHMW is made with a blend of virgin and recycled UHMW. Its FDA and USDA compliance and easy machinability make it an extremely versatile, eco-friendly, and cost-effective material for countless non-food applications. Reprocessed UHMW is used extensively in conveying, material handling, and packaging applications where durability and wear resistance is necessary.
