Features of PEEK Flange:

High Thermal Stability: PEEK flanges can withstand high temperatures without deforming or losing their mechanical properties, making them suitable for high-temperature environments, including chemical processing and aerospace applications.

Chemical Resistance: PEEK is highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, bases, and organic solvents. This feature makes PEEK flanges ideal for use in harsh chemical environments, where they can maintain integrity and performance over time.

Advantages of Using PEEK Flanges:

Exceptional Mechanical Strength: PEEK provides robust tensile and compressive strength, ensuring secure and stable connections in high-pressure applications.

Low Friction and Wear Resistance: The material's low friction coefficient reduces wear, extending the lifespan of the flange and associated components.

Electrical Insulation: PEEK is an excellent electrical insulator, making these flanges suitable for use in electronic and electrical applications where insulation is required.

Lightweight: PEEK flanges are significantly lighter than metal alternatives, which helps in reducing the overall weight of assemblies and systems.

Radiation Resistance: PEEK's resistance to radiation makes these flanges suitable for use in medical and aerospace applications where exposure to radiation is a concern.

Biocompatibility: PEEK is biocompatible, allowing it to be used in medical applications, including implants and devices.
