PEEK

Flexo PEEK (PolyEtherEther-Ketone) is a high performance advanced polymer with outstanding physical properties, similar to Flexo PPS Ryton, but with a substantially expanded operating temperature range. Flexo PEEK is inherently flame retardant, with a V-0 flammability rating, will withstand continuous use in superheated water or steam up to 260 °C, and resists most acids, solvents and bases.

Flexo PEEK is FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved as a food contact product, resists damage from radiation and will continue to perform in UHV (Ultra High Vacuum) environments. Flexo PEEK is extensively used in the aerospace, automotive, teletronic and chemical process industries, and is considered an advanced biomaterial used in medical implants and other biomedical applications.

Flexo PEEK will withstand thousands of sterilization cycles without damage or degradation. Flexo PEEK expandable sleeving is tightly braided from 0,25 mm filaments of pure, unfilled PEEK polymer. The sleeving expands to fit over connectors and splices, and provides a full coverage over wires hoses and cable bundles in advanced engineering applications.
