Peek Sheet

Peek is part of a family of polyarylether ketones (PAEK) but the peek acronym is most recognized. Related chemistries based on PEK and Peek offer unique thermal benefits to the traditional PAEK Peek is recognized as having the best balance of chemical resistance, wear resistance and best heat resistance among all thermoplastics. It is melt processible allowing for processing into shapes by extrusion and injectiion molding.

Peek is known for its exceptional chemical inertness including to saturated steam .only a few halogenated acids like HF will affect PEEK. Peek poymers have a softening temperataure of 175 – 200^oC and a melting temperataure of 350^oC. Peek material complies with FDA regulation 21 CAR 177-2415 for repeated food contact. PEEK also has V- O flammability ratings and exhibit vey low smoke and toxic gas emission when exposed to flame.

Key Features

• Excellent chemical resistance
• Very low mositure absorption
• Inherently good wear  and abrasion resistance
• Unaffected by continous exposure tohot water or stream

Peek Filter Grade : Peek is available in carbon & Glass Filled, Requirement for some extraordinary wear and heat resistant, bearing materials for chemically tough service conditions. PEEK Filled Grades are not  FDA Approved.
