UHMW PE chain guide rail is a component that supports and guides the movement of chains in a conveyor system. It is usually made of extruded or machined UHMW PE material, which has a very high molecular weight (over 3 million g/mol) and a high degree of crystallinity. This gives UHMW PE chain guide rail superior strength, wear resistance, impact resistance, chemical resistance, and self-lubrication properties. UHMW PE chain guide rail works by providing a smooth and stable surface for the chains to run on. The low coefficient of friction of UHMW PE reduces the frictional force between the chains and the guide rail, which reduces the power consumption and noise level of the conveyor system. The high abrasion resistance of UHMW PE prevents the guide rail from wearing out quickly due to constant contact with the chains. The high impact resistance of UHMW PE protects the guide rail from cracking or breaking due to sudden shocks or loads. The high chemical resistance of UHMW PE makes it suitable for corrosive environments where other materials might degrade or corrode. The self-lubricating property of UHMW PE eliminates the need for external lubrication or maintenance, which saves time and money.
