Description
PEEK Plastic Rod 45mm Dia
PEEK 45mm dia rod is an advanced thermoplastic material developed for manufacturing precision-engineered parts used in demanding industrial environments. Known for its exceptional mechanical performance, it combines high rigidity with resistance to heat, chemicals and continuous wear. It can operate at temperatures up to 260°C and has a melting point of 343°C, making it suitable for applications where ordinary engineering plastics may fall short.
Its excellent tensile properties and low-friction surface make it particularly useful for components exposed to mechanical stress and ongoing contact. PEEK also offers resistance to a wide range of organic and water-based substances, while its flame-retardant characteristics provide an additional advantage in specialist applications. The material is food compliant, biocompatible and resistant to gamma and X-ray radiation. Its 45mm round profile provides suitable stock for machining bespoke parts and precision industrial fittings.
