PEEK™ MACHINED PARTS GLASS CLOTH EPOXY

PEEK™ (Polyether ether ketone) is a strong, stiff plastic material that is often used in applications where performance at elevated temperatures is required. PEEK™ has outstanding chemical resistance as well as resistance to steam and hot water. It is a colorless organic polymer thermoplastic used in engineering applications. PEEK™ can easily be fabricated to any close tolerance. The Gund Company specializes on in custom CNC machining for industrial plastics. The Gund Company is AS 9100D / EN9100:2018 certified, and deals in the following standards: MIL-P-46183 Type 2 Class 1 & 3 (other grades available upon request).

PEEK™ PLASTIC MACHINE GRADES

UNFILLED PEEK™ / VIRGIN PEEK™

Meets MIL-P-46183 Type 2, Class 1

This general-purpose grade is unreinforced and offers all PEEK™ grades’ highest elongation and toughness. All unfilled PEEK™ grades comply with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.2415 for repeated food contact.

The Gund Company offers unfilled PEEK™ plastic machined parts in the following colors:

• Light Brown
• Tan
• Black

Black PEEK™ is ideal for instrument components where aesthetics are important, as well as for seal components where ductility and inertness are important.

30% GLASS FILLED PEEK™

Meets MIL-P-46183 Type 2, Class 3

The addition of glass fibers significantly reduces the expansion rate and increases the flexural modulus of PEEK™. This grade is ideal for structural applications that require improved strength, stiffness, or stability, especially at temperatures above 300°F (150°C). Glass-filled PEEK™ ranges from light brown to tan in color.
