PEEK Rods

100% virgin PEEK, glass fiber filled PEEK, carbon fiber filled PEEK

About PEEK:

PEEK is a high performance engineering thermoplastic that offers chemical and water resistance similar to PPS, but can operate at higher temperatures. PEEK can be used continuously to480°F(250°C) and in hot water or steam without permanent loss in physical properties. For hostile environments, PEEK is a high strength alternative to fluoropolymers. PEEK carries a V-0 flammability rating and exhibits very low smoke and toxic gas emission when exposed to flame.

Advantages:

▪        Excellent chemical resistance

▪        Very low moisture absorption

▪        Inherently good wear and abrasion resistance

▪        Unaffected by continuous exposure to hot water or steam

▪        High temperature resistant, can withstand250°C

Key Features:

▪        Strong and stiff plastic

▪        Outstanding chemical resistance

▪        Good mechanical properties at elevated temperatures

▪        Resistant to hot water and steam

▪        Bearing grade PEEK has excellent wear characteristics

▪        UL 94 V-0 flammability rating (0.059" thickness)

▪        Very low smoke and toxic gas emissions when exposed to flame

Applications:

▪        Semiconductor machinery components

▪        Aerospace parts

▪        Seals

▪        Pump and valve components

▪        Bearings and bushings (bearing grade PEEK)

▪        Electrical components

▪        Medical instrument parts

▪        Food processing machinery components
