Products in Other Medical Applications: Polyetheretherketone (PEEK)

Greene, Tweed offers precision-molded thermoplastic components made from our high-performance Orthtek® composite materials for a variety of demanding medical and biotechnology applications. Orthtek WF compnents work well as metal replacement, and dimensional stability. Orthtek WF is recommended applications such as nail guides and retractors where radiolucentcy and autoclaving are required.

AFT Fluorotec AF801 Virgin PEEK material is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic typically used as a replacement for machined metals in a wide variety of high performance end-use applications.

fluteck™ K301 PEEK is a high performance thermoplastics polymers based on unreinforced Polyetheretherketone (PEEK)

fluteck™ K303 PEEK is a high performance thermoplastics polymers based on unreinforced Polyetheretherketone (PEEK).

Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) PEEK is a semicrystalline thermoplastic with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance properties that are retained to high temperatures. PEEK is regarded as one of the highest performing engineering thermoplastics in the world. PEEK is used to fabricate items used in demanding applications in aerospace, automotive, oil and gas and medical industries.

Nemcon™ H-series products are designed for use in high performance electronic assemblies where heat removal is critical to system performance. Nemcon™ H PO DP117/X2 is a thermally conductive polyetheretherketone, offering excellent chemical resistance, good stiffness and high HDT. It should be used in demanding applications where thermal management must be accomplished in harsh environments.

fluteck™ K308 PEEK is a high performance thermoplastics polymers based on unreinforced Polyetheretherketone (PEEK).

Comco PEEK-ELS EC/Conductive offers excellent mechanical strength, high chemical and hydrolysis resistance as well as high radiation and steam resistance. The continuous operating temperature of PEEK is about 250°C. Thanks to its excellent thermal properties, PEEK is suitable for applications at very high temperatures. Its physical properties remain unaffected by the external environment. It is made of CNT (carbo-nano-tube) PEEK resin. It retains a constant conductivity level between 104 and 106 ohms.

Greene, Tweed offers precision plastic components for a wide range of demanding medical and biotechnology applications. Arlon 1160, a high-performance, unfilled thermoplastic is ideal for applications requiring wear resistance, corrosion resistance and dimensional stability. Arlon 1160 is preferred over metal because it is lightweight, very nonconductive and autoclavable.

Greene, Tweed offers precision-molded thermoplastic components made from our high-performance Orthtek® composite materials for a variety of demanding medical deice applications. Orthtek RP is ideally suited to replace metal due to its strength, dimensional stability, low weight, and corrosion resistance. Orthtek RP is recommended for noncomplex parts such as nail guides where radiolucentcy and autoclaving are required.

PEEK is a polyetheretherketone materials are suitable for the production of components that are intended for continuous use under the toughest conditions. In addition to a very high continuous service temperature (up to +260°C), PEEK also has extremely high strength and rigidity with good toughness at the same time. In addition, PEEK is characterized by excellent abrasion resistance, excellent sliding properties and a low linear thermal expansion coefficient.

Nylacast Peek is a high performance engineering thermoplastic. It is very strong and rigid. The characteristics of PEEK show that it has the highest tensile strength in the plastics family. It can be used on a continuous basis in temperatures of 480°F (250°C) without any loss of its properties.

fluteck™ K304 PEEK is a high performance thermoplastics polymers based on unreinforced Polyetheretherketone (PEEK).

fluteck™ K300 PEEK is a high performance thermoplastics polymers based on unreinforced Polyetheretherketone (PEEK).
