Slideways offers standard UHMW polyethylene wear strips for plastic modular belts, modular-belt conveyors, and belt-support applications.
These wear strips provide a durable, low-friction surface that supports the belt and helps reduce sliding resistance and wear on conveyor components. Choose the standard profile that matches your equipment, then select the material, length, and quantity required.
Slideways wear strips are available in multiple standard profiles and dimensions for plastic modular belt conveyor applications.
Each product is identified by its cross-sectional dimensions and SKU. Review the product image, dimensional drawing, and specifications to confirm that the profile matches your existing wear strip or conveyor design.
After selecting the correct profile, choose the material and either a 10-foot or 20-foot length on the product page.
Standard product pages offer the following material selections:
General-purpose UHMW polyethylene provides a durable, wear-resistant, and low-friction surface for many conveyor applications. It is self-lubricating and resistant to moisture, corrosion, and many chemicals.
Oil-filled UHMW provides additional lubricity and lower friction than standard UHMW. It may be beneficial for higher-speed conveyors and applications with increased sliding resistance.
Material performance varies based on conveyor speed, load, temperature, sanitation requirements, and the surrounding operating environment.
Other UHMW formulations and MD-Nylon may be available for application-specific requirements. Contact Slideways for material availability and selection assistance.
