    Machinable PEEK Sheets

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Machinable PEEK Sheets.
    These PEEK sheets can be machined to tight tolerances for use in electrical and semiconductor parts, such as test sockets. With a ceramic filler, they have excellent hardness and rigidity. The filler also acts as an effective barrier against gas and fluid permeation. These sheets maintain their shape when exposed to temperature changes. They also withstand wear from abrasion and repetitive processes.

    Metal-Detectable PEEK Bars

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Metal-Detectable PEEK Bars.
    Common in food and pharmaceutical plants, these PEEK bars help you identify contaminated batches. They contain metal and chemical additives that set off metal detectors and show up on X-rays if they fall into your line, which help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs. All are bright blue in color, so you can find and remove them quickly. They’re also FDA compliant for direct contact with food.
    These PEEK bars stand up to wear from abrasion and repetitive processes. They’re also resistant to extended contact with water, high-temperature steam, and clean-in-place (CIP) cycles with harsh cleaners and sanitizers. Due to their light weight, they’re commonly substituted for metal parts in high-stress or chemical-processing applications where weight is important.

    Easy-Thermoform High-Strength Chemical-Resistant PAEK and Carbon Fiber Sheets

    Image of Specification. Quasi-Isotropic Construction. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Quasi-Isotropic Carbon Fiber.

    Quasi-Isotropic Construction

    Originally designed for the automotive and aerospace industries, these PAEK and carbon fiber sheets are a substitute for metal because they’re as light as aluminum and as strong as a nickel alloy. Their combination of high strength, light weight, chemical resistance, and thermal properties is unusual for a composite. High tension won’t break them apart and extreme compression won’t shrink or crack them. They’re also stiff and withstand abrasions and dents from heavy loads. Cleaning and degreasing chemicals, such as acetone and isopropyl alcohol, won’t damage them. Unlike most composites, they’re recyclable too.
    Form these sheets into the shapes you need using heat and pressure. Compared to PEEK composites, they don’t need as high of a curing temperature to thermoform them, so they save you time and energy. Different from composites made with adhesives and epoxies, which you must machine, layer, and cure, you can repeatedly and quickly heat and form these sheets without hurting their strength or chemical resistance. However, they will soften if the operating temperature exceeds 500° F—a higher maximum temperature than other thermoformable composites.
    Quasi-Isotropic Carbon Fiber—Quasi-isotropic sheets have extra rigid corners to resist bending and pulling in any direction. Though, they’re not as good at resisting force in one direction as bidirectional sheets.
