UHMW PE Sliding Fenders are the ideal alternative to timber facings with the added advantage of low-friction and superior wear properties. UHMW PE does not split or decay and is totally resistant to marine borers. Environmentally friendly and fully recyclable, UHMW PE can be used instead of tropical hardwoods and offers a significantly longer service life.
