Advanced engineering projects demand materials that retain dimensional stability under extreme thermal, chemical, and mechanical loads. Our product lineup addresses these challenges with precision-manufactured solutions, including the PEEK CF30 tube, a lightweight yet rigid structural component reinforced with 30% carbon fiber. For high-pressure fluid handling in aggressive environments, the PEEK CF30 pipe provides exceptional creep resistance and burst strength. Where specifications allow for an unreinforced grade, the PEEK plastic pipe offers outstanding purity and electrical insulation, making it ideal for semiconductor and medical device applications. These semi-finished extruded profiles are produced under strict lot traceability, ensuring consistent performance in aerospace, oil & gas, and life-science industries.
The carbon fiber reinforced PEEK tube leverages a continuous CF30 dispersion within a polyetheretherketone matrix to elevate stiffness by over 45% compared to unfilled grades, while retaining a specific gravity of only 1.40. This carbon fiber reinforced PEEK tube excels in cryogenic and elevated temperature service, maintaining a flexural modulus above 18 GPa at 23°C and enduring peaks up to 300°C without permanent deformation. Machining the carbon fiber reinforced PEEK tube is straightforward with carbide tooling, yielding smooth surfaces that reduce friction in bearing and seal applications. Its inherent radiation resistance and minimal outgassing further extend the useful life of the carbon fiber reinforced PEEK tube in vacuum chambers and satellite components where reliability cannot be compromised.
