Material: Ketron PEEK HPV (Extruded)

Bearing Grade Polyetheretherketone

Carbon fiber reinforced with graphite and PTFE lubricants, our newest grade of PEEK offers the lowest coefficient of friction and the best machinability for all PEEK Grades. An excellent combiantion of low friction, low wear, high LPV, low mating part wear and easy machining, make it ideal for aggressive service bearings.
