Benefits of PEEK Include:

  • Inherently flame resistant and self-extinguishing
  • Long-term hydrolytic stability even above 250°C
  • Outstanding resistance to a broad range of chemicals, including automotive fluids, fully halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, and aqueous solutions
  • Low smoke and toxic gas emissions
  • Excellent dimensional stability with low heat creep, low and uniform coefficient of thermal expansion, giving PEEK highly reproducible part-to-part dimensions
  • High thermal properties with a Tg of 143°C, CUT of 240-260°C, and Tm of 343°

Typical PEEK Applications Include:

  • Seals, Gears, Bushings, Bearings, Pump and Compressor Components
  • Industries Served: Auto, Aerospace, Defense, Semi-conductor, Oil & Gas

Filament Specifications:

1.75mm and 2.85mm +/- 0.05mm in diameter

Recommended Print Settings:
