Material: 30% Carbon Filled PEEK

The addition of carbon fibers enhances the compressive strength and stiffness of PEEK, and dramatically lowers its expansion rate. It offers designers optimum wear resistance and load carrying capability in a PEEK-based product. This grade provides more thermal conductivity than unreinforced PEEK - increasing heat dissipation from bearing surfaces improving bearing life and capability.
