Main Characteristics:
- Very high maximum allowable service temperature in air (250°C continuously, up to 310°C for short periods of time)
- High mechanical strength, stiffness and creep resistance, also at elevated temperatures
- Excellent chemical and hydrolysis resistance
- Excellent wear & frictional behaviour
- Very good dimensional stability
- Excellent resistance to high energy radiation (gamma- and X-rays)
- Inherent low flammability and very low levels of smoke evolution during combustion
Grade Information:
KETRON PEEK-1000 natural (brownish grey) / black [PEEK]
KETRON PEEK-1000 stock shapes are produced from virgin polyetheretherketone resin and offer the highest toughness and impact strength of all KETRON PEEK grades. Both KETRON PEEK-1000 natural & black can be sterilized by all conventional sterilization methods (steam, dry heat, ethylene oxide and gamma irradiation). Additionally, the composition of the raw materials used for the manufacture of KETRON PEEK-1000 stock shapes complies with the regulations of the European Union (Directive 2002/72/EC, as amended) and the United States of America (FDA) for plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs.
