Using Ultrahigh-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene in Hydraulic Drives

  • Published:
Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

The use of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) in manufacturing is proposed—in particular, for the cuffs of hydraulic drives. The properties of UHMWPE are considered, in comparison with other types of polyethylene.
