Specific properties

PEEK 1000 / PEEK 1000 FG 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).
