PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) is a high-performance plastic. It is wear-resistant, non-conductive, and chemically stable. It performs well in demanding environments. It can withstand temperatures of up to 260°C. So, it is suitable for many applications. Our PEEK fasteners are made in-house and each type is tailored to meet the needs of specific industries:
Natural PEEK: Suitable for aerospace and chemical use. It performs well in corrosive environments and at high temperatures.
Hygienic PEEK: These fasteners are for industries with strict hygiene standards. They have a blue, metal-detectable or X-ray opaque filler for safety and traceability.
Medical-Grade PEEK: It is a refined version of PEEK. It is biocompatible, so it's ideal for medical uses.
PEEK fasteners are lightweight, non-corrosive, and non-conductive. They have low thermal conductivity. These features make them ideal for design engineers in aerospace, food, medical, and chemical manufacturing. They are one of the few plastics that perform reliably in Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV) systems; PEEK fasteners are often used alongside vented fasteners in UHV applications.
If you need help choosing the right PEEK fastener for your application or want to know more about our growing range, please contact us.
Manufactured for industries with a hygienic requirement, these products are made with an X-Ray opaque or metal detectable filler, in blue, for optical detection.
Natural PEEK is used in the aerospace and petrochemical industries.
Manufactured for medical industry applications, these products are in a variant of PEEK which is refined for biocompatibilty.
