Dewatering Elements
UHMWPE is a thermoplastic material designed for use in extreme conditions. Owing to UHMW’s high molecular weight, it is highly wear-resistant. Despite of its homogeneous and waxy nature it exhibits excellent sliding properties. Thus UHMW is best suited to dewatering element in paper machines.

- No adherence of contaminants
- Complete chemical resistance
- Low coefficient of friction
- Self-lubricating
- Wide temperature resistant range
- Wet suction box covers
- Flat suction box covers
- Felt suction box covers
- Long lifetime
- Break resistance

Dewatering elements made of PE-UHMW have a high thermal elongation. They must, therefore, be fastened in such a way that strips and covers can extend unhindered (T-bars, angle strips, dovetail design, screws in slots).
In order to guarantee the perfect function of our covers, the substructure must be supported in distances of approx. 250 mm.
The support must extend to the underside of the cover to ensure that it is held flat. The thermal expansion of plastic is significantly higher than that of steel; therefore, appropriate space during installation is necessary.
