28mm Dia PEEK Round Rod for Specialist Engineering Applications

PEEK Rod 28mm Dia

PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) 28mm rod is an advanced thermoplastic engineered for manufacturing robust components used in specialised industrial environments. It combines excellent load-bearing capacity with thermal endurance and resistance to aggressive operating conditions, making it suitable for applications where consistent material performance is essential.

This semi-crystalline polymer has a continuous service temperature of up to 260°C and a melting point of 343°C. Its tensile strength of approximately 90–100 MPa provides the mechanical support needed for precision parts exposed to pressure and physical stress. PEEK also has excellent sliding characteristics, helping components maintain performance when subjected to friction and repeated contact.

Its resistance to many organic and water-based chemicals makes it suitable for demanding processing environments. Additional benefits include protection against gamma and X-ray radiation, food compliance and biocompatibility. With a UL 94 V-0 classification, it offers self-extinguishing properties. The 28mm rod can be machined into customised shapes for specialist machinery and may replace metal in selected applications involving high temperatures.
