PEEK
High-Performance PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) for Extreme Applications
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a high-performance thermoplastic known for its exceptional mechanical properties, high-temperature resistance, and excellent chemical resistance. PEEK is used in demanding applications across industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, and electronics. Its outstanding strength, dimensional stability, and ability to withstand harsh environments make it ideal for use in high-stress, high-performance parts that need to maintain structural integrity under extreme conditions.
Key Features:
Exceptional high-temperature resistance, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 250°C (482°F)
Superior mechanical strength and stiffness, maintaining high performance even under heavy loads
Excellent chemical and wear resistance, making it ideal for harsh chemicals, oils, and abrasion-prone environments
Low friction properties, making it suitable for applications requiring minimal wear and tear
Non-reactive and biocompatible, ensuring safe use in medical and food processing applications
Dimensional stability in extreme conditions, maintaining size and shape even under stress
Resistant to radiation, ensuring longevity and reliability in nuclear and other high-radiation environments
Industrial Applications:
Aerospace – Used for manufacturing lightweight, high-strength components such as bearings, seals, and structural parts
Automotive – Applied in fuel systems, engine parts, and drive shafts due to its high strength and resistance to heat and chemicals
Medical Devices – Used in implants, surgical instruments, and dental devices due to its biocompatibility and resistance to sterilization processes
Electronics – Utilized in connectors, insulators, and microelectronic components for its electrical insulating properties and durability
Oil & Gas – Employed in seals, gaskets, and pumps exposed to high temperatures, chemicals, and harsh environments
Chemical Processing – Applied in pumps, valves, and liners where resistance to aggressive chemicals and high-pressure conditions is essential
Food Processing – Used in components requiring high cleanliness standards, resistance to chemicals, and high durability under continuous operation
