TECAFIL PEEK VX MT natural is an unfilled, medical grade filament based on Victrex® PEEK. It therefore combines the outstanding property profile of the high temperature thermoplastic PEEK, such as exceptionally high thermal, mechanical and chemical resistance, with requirements regarding biocompabitlity.

This filament has been tested resp. evaluated for biocompatibility according to standard ISO 10993-1, -4, -5, -18 and meets the specified requirements for contact of up to 24 hours with skin and tissue and, if applicable, indirect contact with blood.
For the biocompatible plastic materials within the Ensinger MED- / MT-standard-portfolio, a biocompatibility declaration is supplied on an order-related basis. The order-related declaration also serves to provide consistent and for our customers comprehensible traceability of the customer order with regard to the products and the raw materials used.

VICTREX® PEEK is a registered trademark of Victrex plc.
