Parallel Twin Screw Barrel for WPC

Wood flour is a grinding agent and moisture source at once. Our WPC package combines a bimetallic barrel with a screw profile that degasses and gels the composite gently — protecting the line from both abrasion and steam pockets in the melt.

Built for WPC decking, fencing, pergola profiles and foam-core WPC board with 50–80% wood content. Tell us your wood loading and profile size and we quote the right wear package.

Common Questions

Questions Buyers Ask About This Product

Nitrided or bimetallic for WPC?

Bimetallic — wood flour with its mineral residues is abrasive enough that nitrided barrels age visibly within a year at WPC loadings.

Do we need degassing?

At wood contents above roughly 50%, yes: moisture in the flour flashes to steam and must be vented or the profile foams unpredictably. We build the vent position to match your barrel layout.

Can you match our decking line output?

Send the extruder model, profile weight per metre and line speed; we size the screw for your actual duty point.
