HDPE Round Rod - Natural 100mm Diameter x 300mm Long, Grade A PE500

Engineered for demanding applications where both size and hygiene matter, this 100mm natural PE 500 HDPE rod measures 300mm in length and delivers reliable performance that keeps production lines running. Whether you're machining a replacement wear pad for a conveyor system, turning a custom flange for a water treatment installation, or fabricating a cutting board blank for a commercial kitchen, the 100mm diameter gives you ample material to work with.

HDPE's waxy, self-lubricating surface reduces friction and wear against mating metal parts, extending component service life without the need for grease or oil. Odourless, non-toxic, and compliant with food contact regulations. Unaffected by most acids, alkalis, and cleaning agents.
