TIVAR™ H.O.T FG UHMW-PE (Food Grade) shapes are formulated to maintain key performance properties at higher operating temperature ranges. This UHMW-PE grade excels in a variety of industrial manufacturing environments with operating temperature of up to 135°C (275°F). Components made from TIVAR™ H.O.T. FG UHMW-PE are compliant with EU 10/2011 and FDA 21 CFR § 177.1520 standard, making them the ideal, longer-lasting material for wear parts in dairy, bakery, poultry/meat and other food processing industries where higher temperatures or frequent chemical wash downs shorten part life.
