PEEK (poly­ether­ether­ke­tone)

Poly­ether­ether­ke­tone is a semi-crystal­line ther­mo­pla­s­tic with excel­lent sliding proper­ties and outstan­ding chemi­cal resis­tance. PEEK reta­ins its very good mecha­ni­cal proper­ties even under high ther­mal stress. The high conti­nuous service tempe­ra­ture thus makes PEEK almost univer­sally appli­ca­ble for heavily loaded struc­tu­ral parts.
