Transcript of PEEK Plastic VS. Metal | Advanced EMC Technologies
5 Key Blows
PEEK Plastic
VS
Metal
Engineered thermoplastic Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) plastic is ideal for
replacing metals due to the weight reduction component even over “light metals”
such as aluminum, titanium and magnesium. In turn the reduction in weight of
PEEK plastic, along with dramatic noise reduction, has opened the doors to
numerous contemporary engineering and industrial design applications.
WEIGHT AND NOISE REDUCTION

PEEK POLYETHERETHERKETONE PARTS
Polyetheretherketone PEEK plastic provides performance enhanced products by extending service life; as well as, resistant to corrosion with lower
coefficient of friction. In dynamic applications, such as bearings or seals, PEEK provides increase load capacity and higher RPM. PEEK is capable of
operating at service temperatures up to 480°F.
ENHANCED PERFORMANCE

PEEK HIGH PERFORMANCE PLASTIC
Polyetheretherketone PEEK offers product and manufacturing engineers
unlimited design freedom and amazing processing versatility; whether it be
injection molding, machining or a combination of both processes. This allows
for complex geometries minimizing labor intensive post-machining steps.

PEEK plastic materials, including Glass-Filled, PEEK-HT (High Temperature),
and PEEK-UHP (Ultra-High Purity) are excellent knock-out contenders
for metal replacement in many market areas including food processing,
biomedical, semi-conductor, and medical device applications.

HIGH TEMPERATURE POLYMER IN GLOBAL MARKET
Polyetheretherketone PEEK helps engineers improve on performance while
reducing total system cost in metal to plastic conversions. Capitalizing on
weight reduction, design flexibility, and environmental compatibility.
