PEEK
VICTREX™ PEEK, which stands for polyetheretherketone, is a highly engineered, semi-crystalline thermoplastic that is frequently utilized as an alternative to machined metals across a diverse range of critical end-use applications. This innovative PEEK material is known for its superior performance characteristics, offering outstanding mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties. Due to these remarkable attributes, PEEK proves to be an excellent choice for use as a mechanical backup in conjunction with softer seals. Not only can PEEK endure exceptionally high temperatures, but it is also capable of performing reliably in extreme chemical environments. These advantageous features have established it as the preferred material for numerous applications in the oil and gas sector. We invite you to consider us as your trusted supplier for all your PEEK material needs!
