Factory UTV Commander UHMW Protection

**Factory UTV** · 09-02-2010, 11:31 PM

First 2 prototypes of our Commander UHMW Skid Plates and A-Arm guards are done. This is the best UTV under carragie protection available for the Can Am 800 and 1000 model UTV's

Looks great Bob.
The Factory UTV skids have had great reviews on the RZR Forum. I am sure these will perform just as good.

Bob,

Thanks for making me do some homework tonight.....

"Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE or sometimes shortened to UHMW), …. results in a very tough material, with the highest impact strength of any thermoplastic presently made. It has a very low coefficient of friction, is self-lubricating, and is highly resistant to abrasion (15 times more resistant to abrasion than carbon steel). Its coefficient of friction is significantly lower than that of nylon and acetal, and is comparable to that of Teflon, but UHMWPE has better abrasion resistance than Teflon.

Because of its resistance to wear and impact, UHMWPE continues to find increasing industrial applications, including the automotive and bottling sectors, for example. Since the 1960s, UHMWPE has also been the material of choice for total joint arthroplasty in orthopedic and spine implants.

UHMWPE fibers are widely used in ballistic protection, defense applications, and increasingly in medical devices as well."
