Description
PEEK Rod 10mm Dia
PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) 10mm rod is an advanced thermoplastic intended for producing precision-engineered parts exposed to demanding industrial conditions. Its high strength-to-weight performance and ability to withstand prolonged heat make it a suitable choice for applications where standard plastic materials may not provide sufficient durability.
With a continuous service temperature of up to 260°C and a melting point of 343°C, PEEK maintains its structural integrity in high-temperature environments. It has a tensile strength of approximately 90–100 MPa and offers resistance to demanding chemical conditions, including exposure to many organic and water-based substances. Its excellent sliding behaviour and resistance to surface wear also support its use in components subject to repeated contact.
The material is classified as self-extinguishing under UL 94 V-0 and is food compliant. It also provides resistance to gamma and X-ray radiation, alongside biocompatible properties for suitable specialist applications. PEEK can be machined into accurate parts and used as a metal substitute in selected high-performance assemblies.
