- Documents
- Outstanding wear and sliding performance.
- Exceptional high-temperature resistance (+250°C continuously in air).
- Superior resistance to hot water vapor.
- The material is low in flammability (UL94 V-0).
- It emits minimal smoke and toxic gases.
- The material has excellent chemical resistance and fatigue strength.
- Hydrolysis resistant.
- The material is radiation-resistant and has a relatively low melt viscosity.
- It is also flame retardant.
- PEEK TX can be relatively expensive compared to other engineering plastics.
- High form creep.
- Not resistant to sulfuric acid.
Specific properties
This material is made of pure PEEK raw material thus without additives and shows the greatest toughness and impact resistance of all PEEK materials. The sterilizability is excellent whether you use hot steam, dry air, ethylene oxide, or gamma rays. Certain specific batches of the raw material used in the manufacture of semi-finished products are approved for contact with food according to EU10 / 2011 (PEEK FG).
