Key Features

PEEK set screws are chosen over metal and other plastics due to their superior performance profile in demanding environments:

  • Extreme Thermal Resistance: PEEK maintains its mechanical properties and structural integrity up to continuous operating temperatures of 260°C(500°C).

  • High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Offers exceptional stiffness and tensile strength, making it the strongest available plastic screw while remaining non-magnetic and significantly lighter than metal.

  • Chemical Inertness: Highly resistant to virtually all common industrial chemicals, solvents, and corrosive agents.

  • Non-Conductive: Excellent electrical insulator, crucial for sensitive electronic and high-voltage applications.

  • Zero Contamination: Non-leaching and high-purity, essential for use in medical, pharmaceutical, and ultra-pure water systems.

Applications

PEEK Slotted Flat End Set Screws are commonly found in:

  • High-Temperature Environments: Securing components in ovens, soldering equipment, or engine compartments where other plastics melt.

  • Sensitive Electronics: Used as internal stops or adjustable limiters where non-conductivity is required.

  • Medical and Scientific Equipment: Fastening adjustment mechanisms in analytical instruments where non-magnetic properties and chemical resistance are mandatory.

  • Semiconductor Manufacturing: Securing fixtures or components in wet-process tools exposed to aggressive chemicals and heat.
