PEEK Rod
PEEK Rod is one of the high performance engineering plastics. It is one of the high end materials that can withstand an extreme range of conditions while still retaining its properties. PEEK does posess many unique advantages that has helped transform many industries.

Advantages of PEEK Rod:
PEEK has a vast and almost limitless range of applications but because of its high operating temperatures, it is chosen for high temperature bearings and rollers. PEEK is also extensively used in the medical and even implant industry. It is popular for surgical instruments because it can withstand the highly repetitive sterilization processes. Because PEEK is FDA approved it is often used within the food processing industry and its excellent tolerance to microwaves is also an advantage. PEEK Rod is also used inside printers and photocopiers as bearings and rollers due to its low friction and high temperature capabilities. PEEK is often found within the aerospace industry as well as ministry of defence and other similar areas.

PEEK Rod not only has a very high temperature tolerance, it has the highest fire rating possible which is V-0. Further to this, PEEK has an exceptionally low smoke or toxic gas emission value which has major advantages and safety elements. PEEK Rod is also very tolerant to most forms of radiation which helps within the x-ray departments of hospitals as well as the nuclear industry.
