The LUBRIBLEND® product family is designed to meet the most demanding needs in applications that require excellent wear and friction performance. Nearly every wear application requires a customized solution in order to deliver the best balance of tribologic, mechanical and thermal properties. Our wear and friction solutions draw upon PTFE, Silicone, Molybdenum Disulfide, Graphite, Aramid and PFPE. In addition, TP Composites offer a broad range of injection moldable UHMW compounds. Many LUBRIBLEND® products are available in FDA and NSF compliant versions too.
LUBRIBLEND® products are available in reinforced grades, in custom colors and in flame retardant versions.

A UHMWPE wear strip used in material handling was wearing excessively and creating a lot of dust (wear debris) against a stainless steel conveyor chain. A new ultra-low coefficient of friction material, LUBRIBLEND® PE 4910, was developed to replace the UHMW wear strip. The lubricant additive(s) in 4910 bring together excellent abrasive wear resistance and the ability to impart lubrication to the counter surface. LUBRIBLEND® PE 4910 is injection moldable, extrudable and can also be compression molded.
