HDPE High Density Polyethylene Round Rod, Black 20mm Diameter x 600mm Long Grade A PE 500

At just 20mm in diameter and 600mm long, this black PE 500 HDPE rod is the ideal stock for small turned parts, spacers, and precision bushings. The slender profile machines cleanly on a lathe with minimal tool pressure, producing smooth, dimensionally accurate components without the brittleness you'd get from nylon or acetal at this size. Black HDPE absorbs less heat than lighter-coloured grades, making it a practical choice for outdoor and UV-exposed applications such as marine fittings, agricultural equipment guards, and conveyor components. The 600mm length gives you enough material to produce multiple short parts from a single piece, reducing offcut waste. Grade A PE 500 — tough, self-lubricating, and chemically resistant to oils, fuels, and most industrial solvents.
