Carbon Fibre PEEK

  • True carbon fibre composite
  • Extraordinary heat performance (melting point 340⁰C)
  • Flame retardant properties
  • Outstanding dimensional accuracy
  • High strength (>130 MPa)
  • Exceptional strength-to-weight ratio: metal replacement
  • Greater chemical stability than PA12
  • Suitable for medical applications – compatible with autoclave sterilisation
  • Ability to create flat parts and feathered edges
  • High impact and wear resistance
  • No warping, curling or deformation of parts
  • Sustainable process: complete recyclability and no powder wastage
