General Info
TIVAR® HPV was developed specifically for wear components subject to challenging production environments, such as high speeds, high temperatures, high loads and aggressive cleaning agents. Components made with TIVAR® HPV show improved sliding behavior and high wear and abrasion resistance due to its low coefficient of friction and high limiting pressure velocity over competitive materials.

Manufacturer Trade Names
Boedeker Plastics, Inc. stocks & supplies plastic sheet, rod, tube, film and custom profiles and machine parts from these shapes that are produced from plastic resin. In many cases the manufacturer of the shape has their own product trade name.
