Default OT HDPE/UHMW polyethylene?

I'm looking at 3/16" thick polyethylene sheets. Can it be bent 180°
to an outer diameter of about 1 1/4"?

I suspect some form of HDPE if not UHMW is available at the local
hardware Borg. Will check tomorrow, but I'm not confident about
getting good information about what the material there really is.

Thanks.
