Is UHMWPE stronger than steel?

This means that UHMWPE fibres has an incredibly high tensile strength compared to many other thermoplastics, and this also means that the material is much stronger than steel in the fibre direction！

Try to imagine a velvety, soft material that is extremely light, but also strong enough to stop a bullet. This is close to a description of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), a super-plastic material commercially known as Dyneema or Spectra, which is already taking over from the para-aramid fibrous material, Kevlar, in e.g. bullet-proof jackets.But recent years，fishing and ocean aquaculture cage industry grow fast and require UHMWPE DYNEEMA Material Net grow rapidly，our Yangfan Mesh Factory produce raschel knotless nets for fishing and aquaculture cage industry over 25 years,to meet our customers requirements,we have been produced UHMWPE Dyneema Raschel Netover 10 years,greatly help customers in the market.
