TECAPEEK IM GF30 natural

injection molded PEEK with 30% glass fiber

REQUEST FURTHER PROCESSING OPTIONS

Injection molded stock shapes of a Victrex PEEK polymer, and 30% glass fiber are available under the tradename TECAPEEK IM GF30 natural. This modification provides increased strength and rigidity. The outer diameter of tubes made from this glass fiber reinforced PEEK vary between 31,75 mm to 177,8 mm, the inner diameter varies from 12,7 to 152,4 mm. Lengths of 76,2 and 152,4 mm are the standard.
