PEEK Rods and Plates

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) offers the highest chemical resistance of any semi-crystalline plastic with excellent retention of mechanical properties up to 570°F (300°C). PEEK offers a combination of superlative properties that allows it to replace metal in some of the most severe end-use environments.

Key Features

• Exceptional chemical resistance to organics, acids and bases

• High mechanical strength in excess of 250°C (482°F)

• Very good wear and abrasion resistance

• Low CLTE and high limiting PV properties

• Best-in class fatigue resistance

• Excellent dimensional stability

• Excellent resistance to hydrolysis in boiling water and superheated steam

• Superior dielectric with low loss at high temperatures and frequencies

• High purity
