Spiratex offers a wide range of ULTREX® UHMW/PE C-Channels, engineered for smooth, low-friction performance in demanding industrial environments. These plastic C-channels are designed to snap or slide onto metal bars, providing a durable wear surface that reduces drag, noise, and vibration across a variety of applications.
Made from Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE), our C-channels deliver exceptional abrasion resistance, impact strength, and chemical stability, making them ideal for use in material handling, conveyor systems, and machinery guides.
Spiratex C-channels are precision-extruded to fit securely over metal bars, aluminum extrusions, and other structural components. The open “C” profile allows for easy installation and removal, while the UHMW-PE material ensures low coefficient of friction for smoother transitions and extended equipment life.
These channels are compatible with a wide variety of metals and alloys, including:
Whether you’re retrofitting an existing system or designing a new one, Spiratex C-channels offer a reliable solution for reducing wear, minimizing maintenance, and improving operational efficiency.
Our UHMW-PE C-channels are commonly used in:
The low-friction surface helps prevent product damage and reduces energy consumption in systems with continuous motion or high-speed transfer.
