  • 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

PEEK TX / PEEK TX FG is specifically developed for use in food manufacturing. Like PEEK 1000, this material is modified for increased abrasion resistance and wear resistance and has an approval for contact with food. The material is especially suitable for use as a bearing material and abrasion surface in the temperature range from + 100 ° C to + 200ºC.
