22mm Dia PEEK Plastic Rod for Precision Industrial Machining

PEEK Rod 22mm Dia

PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) 22mm rod is a premium technical polymer developed for manufacturing components used in challenging industrial and specialist environments. Its combination of thermal endurance, mechanical strength and resistance to aggressive substances makes it an effective choice for engineering projects that require dependable material performance.

This semi-crystalline thermoplastic offers a continuous operating temperature of up to 260°C and a melting point of 343°C. With tensile strength of approximately 90–100 MPa, it provides the rigidity needed for parts exposed to pressure, movement and repeated mechanical loads. Its excellent resistance to friction and abrasion also makes it suitable for applications involving regular surface contact.

PEEK performs well when exposed to many organic and aqueous chemicals and offers resistance to gamma and X-ray radiation. It is classified as self-extinguishing under UL 94 V-0 and is food compliant. Its biocompatibility and suitability for certain vacuum applications further extend its use across specialist industries. The 22mm round profile can be machined into custom components and may replace metal in selected high-temperature applications.
