MACHINING OF PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) PARTS
Specialists in machining PEEK parts
Some of the most notable mechanical and chemical properties of PEEK™ include: a low friction coefficient, high wear and abrasion resistance, dimensional stability at high temperatures, and thermal stability, which is important for its industrial applications. Thermal degradation occurs between the crystalline transition and melting temperatures. The elastic modulus of PEEK™ is strongly influenced by its degree of crystallinity and its viscoelastic nature, and different values of tensile strength can be obtained depending on the temperature. PEEK is lighter than steel, aluminum, and titanium.
