Custom UHMWPE Wear Pads & Blocks are machined polyethylene components designed for wear protection, sliding support, impact buffering and low-friction contact in industrial equipment. They are commonly used as wear pads, spacer blocks, support blocks, sliding blocks, liner blocks and custom machined parts in conveyor systems, mining equipment, material handling machinery and general industrial applications.
Made from UHMWPE / high molecular weight polyethylene, these parts offer good wear resistance, impact resistance, low friction and corrosion resistance. Compared with metal parts, UHMWPE pads and blocks can help reduce friction, protect equipment surfaces, lower noise and simplify maintenance in many sliding and contact applications.
Available in flat plates, slotted pads, drilled blocks, stepped blocks, fork-shaped blocks, modular blocks and custom CNC-machined profiles, the products can be manufactured according to drawings, samples or installation requirements.

Product Detail
UHMWPE Wear Pads & Blocks are used in industrial equipment where repeated friction, sliding contact or material impact may cause wear to metal surfaces. The material has a low coefficient of friction and good self-lubricating performance, making it suitable for parts that need to slide, support, guide or protect equipment components.
These products can be used as replaceable wear parts in areas that are exposed to frequent contact, such as conveyor slideways, guide surfaces, chute liners, hopper contact areas, machine support positions and custom mounting structures. By using UHMWPE instead of metal in suitable applications, buyers can reduce friction, protect the main equipment body and improve service life.
Kunzheng can produce both standard and custom designs. Common products include rectangular wear pads, slotted plates, square mounting blocks, fork-shaped support blocks, flange-style blocks and precision CNC-machined components with holes, slots, steps or recessed areas.
