KetaSpire® KT-820 CF30

About
KetaSpire® KT-820 CF30 is the low-flow, 30% carbon-fiber reinforced grade of polyetheretherketone (PEEK). Carbon- fiber reinforcement of KetaSpire® PEEK provides the maximum levels of mechanical properties at temperatures approaching 300°C, and the lowest coefficient of linear thermal expansion within the KetaSpire® product family. KetaSpire® PEEK is produced to the highest industry standards and is characterized by a distinct combination of properties, which include excellent wear resistance, best-in-class fatigue resistance, ease of melt processing, high purity, and excellent chemical resistance to organics, acids and bases. These properties make it well-suited for applications in healthcare, transportation, electronics, chemical processing and other industrial uses.&&
