PEEK offers a unique combination of high mechanical properties, temperature resistance (-50°C to +250°c) and excellent chemical resistance, making it the mostpopular advanced plastics material. PEEK is also selfextinguishing according to UL 94 VO and is food compliant.
Because of its qualities, PEEK rod is used to fabricate items used in demanding environments, such as bearings, piston parts, pumps, and compressor plate valves. It is also used extensively in the aerospace, automotive, and chemical process industries. PEEK is one of the few plastics compatible with vacuum applications.
PEEK rod can be used as a metal replacement for high temperature applications. As a result, it has become a key plastic for materials engineers in applications when no other material can meet the requirements, such as for the oil and gas industry. PEEK has also been shown to be a superior material in alternative energy production for the construction of equipment and components used solar, wind, nuclear, geothermal and hydropower.
PEEK rod has excellent machine-ability, is flame retardant, and possesses excellent wear and slide properties.
