This general purpose grade is unreinforced and offers the highest elongation and toughness of all PEEK grades. The newly available black PEEK 1000 is ideal for instrument components where aesthetics are important, as well as for seal components where ductility and inertness are important.
PEEK properties at a glance:
- Very high temperature resistance (up to 250°C continuous operating temperature)
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Good dimensional resistance (low thermal expansion)
- Optimal ratio of stiffness, solidity, toughness and minimal tendency to creep
- Very good tribological properties (good sliding performance, low wear)
- Good radiation resistance
- Excellent resistance to hydrolysis
- Fire performance: flame-retardant, Low smoke density, No toxic gases
- Good machinability
- Good bondability and weldability
PEEK450G is available in numerous modifications to meet your requirements. They include:
