FIL-A-GEHR® PEEK is a Polyetheretherketone ranks among the high Performance thermoplastics thanks to its high melting point of 343 °C and its maximum continuous operating temperature of 260 °C. Its particular chemical structure makes PEEK largely stable against thermal and chemical damage and permits its usage inside the body. In case of fire, the smoke development of PEEK is the lowest of all thermoplastics; the material is therefore used in aviation. FIL-A-GEHR PEEK® is an experimental filament with a processing temperature of 375 °C in the heated chamber (180 °C). The material is specifically apt for use on 3D printers.

FIL-A-GEHR® PEEK MG (MEDI) is a high performance filament based on the material PEEK and is suitable for medical and pharmaceutical applications in direct body contact with tissue, bone, skin and mucous membrane up to 24 hours. They have been tested and evaluated by independent, accredited test laboratories and meet the following biocompatibility requirements: – ISO 10993-1/5/12/18 and USP Class VI.
