UHMW is Best Material for a RZR XP 4 Turbo S Skid Plate
Genuine UHMW Skid Plate
UHMW is the hands down best material for Sport UTVs. Our 3/8ths inch UHMW skid protects the entire underside of the RZR XP 4 Turbo S.
UHMW-PE stands for Ultra-High Molecular Weight Poly-Ethylene. To learn more about UHMW, go to our UHMW section at the bottom of the page.
We love UHMW skid plates because they are:
- Extremely Slick
- Extremely hard to degrade
- Absorb massive impacts (saves frame and engine damage)
Don't settle for imposter plastic.
Great Fit and Finish of UHMW Skid Plates
Our RZR XP 4 Turbo S Skid Plate is designed to blend into your vehicle and provide safety features that are redundant and durable so you only have to buy one skid plate for the life of your RZR XP 4 Turbo S.
Increased Redundancy with Full Lap Joints
Our miter lap joints create flush overlapping panels with a near seamless finish in order to reduce catch points
Don't settle for companies that use high risk butt joints!
1-Piece Main Panel Skid Reduces Your Risk
Our RZR XP 4 Turbo S Skid Plate has 1 massive main panel which reduces the chance of catching, tearing off, or hanging down. Our tail is reinforced with an aluminum bash plate making it nearly impenetrable.
Slide With UHMW Rock Sliders
Our proprietary Rock Sliders for the RZR XP 4 Turbo S Skid Plate create a snug fit between the rocker and the RZR XP 4 Turbo S body. This means it forms to the angle of the machine, not the standard 90 degree angle.
Option to be have the rockers built into the skid plate
Installation and Maintenance of the RZR XP 4 Turbo S Skid Plate
Easiest Install
No tapping required on the RZR XP 4 Turbo S skid plate! We reuse all available factory holes. SSS Offroad custom made fasteners are fine threaded screw that automatically tap pre-drilled holes. The fine threads are very important because the frame tubing is so thin.
Premium Hardware
We use the best corrosion resistant coating available so that no matter the environment, your hardware will stand up.
Our RZR XP 4 Turbo S Skid Plate uses fine threaded screws so you get the most thread contact on each mounting point with a steel rounded cup washers. This creates even more protection and enables a tighter hold than a standard bolt-to-plastic connection.
Maintenance is Easy With A UHMW Skid
We include essential drain and maintenance holes. If an area is serviced less than once a year, we do not include it and recommend removing the panel to clean and service.

UHMW FAQs
What is UHMW?
UHMW-PE stands for Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polythene.
High Impact Strength
- Absorbs impacts
- Bounces back to original shape
Extremely Quiet
Significantly dampens impact noise
Self Lubricating/High Abrasion Resistance
- Easily slide over rocks and logs
- Outwears carbon steel 10:1, great for sand
Light-Weight
- Lighter than aluminum
- Very similar weight to HDPE (Factory/OEM material)
Why is our material the better than others?
We only supply genuine American made UHMW-PE.
We believe some products pose as UHMW based but are not made from UHMW. Some material descriptions that we believe you should be aware of are:
- "Proprietary blend of UHMW" (most likely HDPE or HMW)
- HMW (less than 10x the molecular weight of UHMW)
- ARMW (most likely HMW)
Which UHMW material thickness should I choose?
3/8th inch UHMW is the best material thickness for nearly all riders.
- 1/8th inch won't allow for a flat finish, hardware or lap joints
- 1/2 inch adds unnecessary weight, doesn't add meaningful upgrade in protection
Why we don't use colored UHMW?
UHMW colors are very limited and primarily used for utility applications, not cosmetic applications. This means that color shades can have significant variations from sheet-to-sheet and will not be matched to a specific Pantone (color matching system). If you have seen cool colored plastics, they are most likely not UHMW because of the inability to color match.
Strength of UHMW vs other plastics?
UHMW has more than 10x the molecular weight than it's little brother HMW (some might call it ARMW). This is what gives UHMW it's superior impact strength, abrasion resistance, stress/crack resistance, and more! This makes it very important to prioritize material type/authenticity over material thickness.
Why factory skids don't cut it?
- Most Factory/OEM skids provide minimal protection
- Factory skids are made with plastic that easily cracks, punctures, or breaks
- Too Thin or Too Thick
- Too many needless holes add snag points
