PEEK Coated Fiber:
PEEK is particularly useful in the
aerospace field for its weight. In an application where two grams
can make a difference and where weight is directly correlated to fuel cost,
lightweight PEEK
coated fiber is superior to stainless steel. PEEK matches aluminium in
mechanical properties, and is
more resistant to fluids such as hydraulic fluids. Thinwall PEEK coating is more
flexible and kink resistant than Aluminium tubing. PEEK coated fiber is also
used for its abrasion resistance properties,
to protect vulnerable fibers located in areas where they could be crushed or
severed. PEEK’s
strength, weight, and heat resistance are ideal for this application.
PEEK coated fiber is an ideal
replacement for stainless steel, other types of metal tubing, and even glass,
for weight reduction, comparable strength/mass, chemical resistance, hardness,
and low
extractable. PEEK most of all is comparable in strength, yet lighter and more
cost effective than
stainless steel. With PEEK coated fiber the risk of corrosion, outgassing, or
leaching (which
can cause contamination) is minimal. PEEK is chemically resistant and inert with
most acids and
bases. PEEK with thin walls can also be made more flexible than stainless steel
or titanium tubing,
and can easily be cut to length with a razor blade. PEEK is weldable, machinable,
and can be
used with your existing stainless steel or polymer fittings. PEEK can be bonded
with epoxies,
cyanoacrylates, polyurethanes, or silicones.
