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-GF30 brownish grey [PEEK - GF30]
This 30% glass fiber reinforced grade offers a higher stiffness and creep resistance than KETRON PEEK-1000 and has a much better dimensional stability. This grade is very appropriate for structural applications carrying high static loads for long periods of time at elevated temperatures. The suitability of KETRON PEEK-GF30 for sliding parts, however, is to be carefully examined since the glass fibers tend to abrade the mating surface.
