TIVAR H.O.T. (Higher Operating Temperature) is an UHMWPE material that has been formulated to maintain inherent UHMWPE key properties over an extended service temperature range. Using Tivar ® H.O.T considerably increases part life in low load bearing applications up to temperatures as high as 125°C. Special additives reduce the oxidation rate of the material at higher temperatures thereby slowing down material degradation and extending wear-life. TIVAR H.O.T. also features a food contact compliant composition.

Details
Tivar® H.O.T has been formulated to maintain key performance properties in an extended temperature range (up to 125 °C), nearly 40 higher than competing UHMWPE formulations. TIVAR® H.O.T. reduces the oxidization rate of the material at higher temperatures thereby slowing material degradation and extending wear-life in chemical, elevated temperature and thermo-cycling environments. In many applications, TIVAR H.O.T. will last up to 10 times longer in higher temperature environments and has excellent wear and release characteristics
TIVAR H.O.T., a food approved grade of UHMWPE, is a great material for use in conveyor systems or other equipment that is frequently exposed to chemical washdowns in such industries as poultry/meat processing and packaging.
