The new PEEK metal detectable material is best suited for applications where high line speeds require good wear resistance, or where operating temperatures in use are higher than 130 °C. Further key characteristics:
Product Details
This member of the Ketron PEEK family (colour: blue) has been developed especially for the food industry. Like Ketron 1000 PEEK, this new internally lubricated material has a food contact compliant composition, but offers far superior wear and frictional performance, making it expecially suitable for a wide variety of bearing and wear applications in the 100 to 200°C service temperature range.
Ketron TX PEEK (rods, plates) is available as a "Food Grade".

Product Details
Ketron CLASSIX™ LSG PEEK stock shapes are produced from Invibio® PEEK-CLASSIX White resin. This material exhibits a unique combination of mechanical properties, temperature and chemical resistance. The composition of the Invibio PEEK-CLASSIX White resin complies with the regulations that apply in the Member States of the European Union (Directive 2002/72/EC, as amended) and in the United States of America (FDA) for plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs. Ketron CLASSIX™ LSG PEEK stock shapes have also been successfully type tested for their compliance with both United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and ISO 10993-1 guideline requirements for Biocompatibility Testing of Materials, and they come with full traceability from resin to stock shape. These features, added to an excellent sterilizability by means of steam, dry heat, ethylene oxide, plasma and gamma irradiation, make Ketron CLASSIX™ LSG PEEK stock shapes very suitable for applications in the medical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets.
