Plate PEEK KETRON® PEEK 1000

rodwear-resistantchemical-resistant

Ketron PEEK 1000® is produced from virgin polyetheretherketone resin and offers the highest toughness and impact resistance of all types of Ketron PEEK. Both natural and black Ketron PEEK 1000 ® can be sterilized by all conventional sterilization methods (steam, dry heat, ethylene oxide and gamma irradiation). The composition of the raw materials used for the manufacture of Ketron PEEK 1000 ® is also FDA compliant for plastic materials and parts intended for food contact. 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 and 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 - Good electrical insulating and dielectric properties [except for Ketron HPV PEEK and CA30 PEEK] APPLICATIONS - Pump components - Valve seats - Bearings ​​​​ - Rollers - Gears - High temperature insulators - Components exposed to boiling water or steam
