PEEK

PEEK plastic is a temperature-resistant engineered machinable thermoplastic with excellent chemical resistance, fatigue resistance and thermal stability.

PEEK exhibits superior mechanical and electrical properties with a maximum continuous working temperature of 480F to 500F and excellent retention of mechanical properties up to 570F in a steam or high-pressure water environment.

Superior chemical resistance has allowed PEEK to work effectively as a metal/stainless steel replacement in harsh environments, and has proven to be a reliable replacement for other materials that cost up to 10 times more.

PEEK is inert to all common solvents and resists a wide range of organic and inorganic liquids. This is a versatile high performance plastic.

• Extreme chemical resistance, good mechanical properties
• Highly resistant to thermal degradation
• Excellent strength, stiffness and dimensional stability
• Lightweight compared to steel, aluminum and titanium
• Low coefficient of friction
• High wear resistance without lubrication
• Low toxicity when exposed to flames
• Glass filled grades are available
• Outstanding wear resistance

Due to its robustness, PEEK is used to fabricate items used in demanding applications where extreme heat, pressure, and chemicals come into play.

• Bearings and Bushings
• Seals
• Pump and valve components
• Piston Parts
• HPLC columns
• Compressor plate valves
• Cable insulation
• Medical implants
• Aerospace applications and parts
• Chemical process applications
