Depending on your specific application needs, PEEK plastic is available in a variety of formats and material options. Two of the most common varieties of PEEK high performance plastic that Online Plastics offers, include:
Unfilled Virgin Grade PEEK Plastic
Our Standard Virgin Grade PEEK is FDA compliant, which makes it appropriate for use in laboratory and medical environments. Virgin PEEK plastic also displays natural abrasion resistance, which is important for heavy-duty applications.
Glass Filled PEEK Plastic
This unique type of PEEK is reinforced with glass fibers, which significantly reduces its expansion rate and increases the flexural modulus. This makes it ideal for applications that require improved stability, strength, and stiffness at temperatures above 300º F.
