At Dezhou Kunzheng Composite Materials Co., Ltd., we manufacture custom UHMWPE bushings and wheels for industrial equipment that requires low friction, wear resistance and stable operation. These parts are commonly used in conveyor systems, packaging machinery, textile equipment, food processing machines, material handling systems and general mechanical assemblies.
We can produce different UHMWPE parts such as sleeve bushings, flanged bushings, spacer sleeves, guide wheels, support wheels, rollers and custom machined wheel components. According to your equipment structure, we can customize the outer diameter, inner bore, thickness, flange size, groove, step, mounting hole and color.
Our UHMWPE bushings and wheels are lightweight, rust-free and quieter than many metal parts. The material has good self-lubricating performance, which helps reduce friction, lower operating noise and protect shafts or matching contact surfaces. For equipment that works in humid, dusty or lightly corrosive environments, UHMWPE is also a practical choice because it does not rust and requires less routine maintenance.
For custom orders, you can send us drawings, sample photos, old parts or installation dimensions. We will confirm the material, size, structure and processing method before production, then manufacture the parts by turning, drilling, milling, CNC machining or injection molding according to the required design.

Why Choose UHMWPE Bushings & Wheels?
Bushings and wheels are often exposed to repeated friction, shaft contact and mechanical movement. UHMWPE is suitable for these positions because it combines low friction, wear resistance and self-lubricating performance.
In conveyor and packaging equipment, UHMWPE wheels and bushings can help reduce noise, protect shafts and lower the need for frequent lubrication. The material is also corrosion resistant and does not rust, which makes it suitable for humid or dusty industrial environments.

FAQ
1. What are UHMWPE bushings and wheels used for?
They are used for guiding, supporting, rotating, spacing and reducing friction in industrial equipment such as conveyors, packaging machines and textile machinery.
2. Can UHMWPE bushings replace metal bushings?
In many light-duty and medium-duty applications, UHMWPE bushings can replace metal bushings to reduce noise, lower friction and avoid rust. Final selection should depend on load, speed, temperature and shaft structure.
3. Can the size be customized?
Yes. Outer diameter, inner bore, thickness, flange size, groove structure and hole position can be customized according to drawings or samples.
4. What colors are available?
Common colors are white and black. Other colors can be produced depending on quantity and material requirements.
5. Do UHMWPE bushings need lubrication?
UHMWPE has good self-lubricating performance, so many applications do not require frequent lubrication. Actual lubrication requirements depend on speed, load and working environment.
6. What information is needed for quotation?
Please provide drawings, sample photos, dimensions, quantity, color and application details. For rotating parts, load, speed and shaft size are also helpful.
