Ketron PEEK 1000
(Colours: Natural (Brownish grey) and Black)
Ketron PEEK-1000 stock shapes are produced from virgin polyetheretherketone resin and offer the highest toughness and impact strength of all Ketron PEEK grades. The composition of the raw materials used for the production of the Ketron PEEK-1000 natural stock shapes complies with the directives of the Europen Union and the American FDA regulations concerning plastic materials intended to come into contact with foodstuffs. These faetures, added to its excellent sterilisability by means of steam, dry heat, ethylene ocide and gamma radiation mate his grade very popular in medical, pharmaceutical and food processing industries.
Main Characteristics
