If you are planning on using an adhesive with UHMW you might have difficulty finding one that sticks. It is practically impossible to glue UHMW; you can do it, but it is necessary to etch the surface with something like hydrofluoric acid which is the nastiest stuff you can ever encounter.
And a few posts up you had this ;
because I want to use it for ICE machining and I heard UHMW works well with sticking to the ICE with a squirt bottle...
Do you mean you heard that ice sticks well to UHMW? That contradicts my experience, and makes you wonder why the bottom of snow skis are sometimes UHMW, so ice will not stick.
