UHMWPE Light Beacon
The Light Beacon is a special mark to guide the navigation and
location of the ships, mark the obstruction and warnings. Light
Beacon is made up by the pillar, platform and foundation. The
platform is used to install the signal lights to provide light and
signals for the ships. The pillar is used to support the
platform.
The UHMWPE pillar has advantages of corrosion resistance,
maintenance free and longer service life, etc.
The average molecular weight for the UHMWPE material is 3.5 million
to 9.2 million. It has the superior properties of impact
resistance, wear resistance, self lubrication and chemical
resistance among the plastics. Furthermore, UHMWPE material is good
at low temperature resistance. It can keep higher impact resistance
at the temperature of **0℃, and could work at ***9℃.
