Manufactured from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.
Has the highest impact strength of all thermoplastics.
Will not break regardless of environmental conditions.
More tolerance to chemicals and saltwater.
Suitable for any low temperature well applications. Not to exceed 150 degrees.
NorrisGlide Delivers:
Easy Installation
Single Slot design allows quick attachment to the rod
Holding Power
Guards against slippage on the rod
Low Coefficient of Friction
Minimizes friction in reciprocating and rotating applications
Self Lubricating
Excellent for high water cut wells
Abrasion Resistance
Excellent with low friction under load
Low Friction
Ramex® UHMW’s self-lubricating and high-slip properties also make it ideal for applications where bulk material flow enhancement is required, such as for lining chutes and hoppers, and for war strips and slide plates – all areas where sliding contact is encountered.
Corrosion and Chemical Resistance
Ramex® features virtually zero water absorption, ensuring
dimensional stability in
aqueous environments, as well as, the resistance of fungus and
bacterial growth. Even ice will not adhere
to it, which is a critical
concern for applications involving the movement of moist bulk
materials in below freezing temperatures.
Ramex® is also resistant to most aggressive chemicals,
including strong oxidizing agents. These characteristics make
Ramex® the
chosen material for war
components and non-stick
surfaces in material handling
applications where a high
degree of corrosion resistance is required.
