Polyethylene ribbon Endumax®

Endumax® tape is a new, patented high-performance tape developed and made by Teijin. It can be used in a wide variety of products for various market segments – anywhere, in fact, where there is a need for superior strength, safety, light weight or durability. For example, Endumax is used worldwide in applications and markets ranging from ballistic protection (armoring and bulletproof vests), ropes and cables to cargo containers, sails and even loudspeakers. The tape shape of Endumax allows for easy processing and seamless integration into the application of the customer. Super-strong – and more Weight-for-weight, Endumax is 11 times stronger than steel. But Endumax offers more than incredible strength. It is made of a special type of UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene), making it the strongest UHMWPE tape available in the world. It also has a higher modulus and better UV resistance, creep properties and thermal-aging performance than other UHMWPE fibers.
