PEEK Cross countersunk Screws Overview

PEEK countersunk head bolts (polyetheretherketone countersunk Phillips head bolts), also known as PEEK Phillips flat head screws, are high-performance polymer fasteners designed for applications requiring flush, clean, and snagging-free surfaces, combining the superior properties of PEEK material. They feature extremely high chemical resistance, high thermal stability, and non-metallic, low-profile mounting characteristics.

Key Features

The screw’s performance is driven by its material and geometry combination:

  • Extreme Thermal Resistance: PEEK has the highest continuous service temperature  among standard engineering plastics, making it a reliable PEEK High Temperature Flat Head solution for demanding thermal cycling.
  • Unrivaled Chemical Inertness: It possesses exceptional PEEK Chemical Resistant Countersunk properties, resisting virtually all common aggressive chemicals, acids, and solvents.
  • High Mechanical Integrity and Stability: PEEK offers high tensile strength, stiffness, and excellent PEEK Screw Creep Resistance, ensuring the joint maintains its preload reliably under stress and temperature fluctuations.
  • Flush Finish (Low Profile): The Countersunk head is designed to recess completely into the mating surface, achieving a smooth, continuous surface (PEEK Flush Mount Fasteners) critical for aesthetics, cleanliness, and aerodynamics.
  • Non-Metallic Benefits: It is absolutely corrosion-proof, non-magnetic, and provides reliable PEEK Electrical Insulating Flat Head properties, even at high temperatures.

Applications

PEEK Countersunk Screw is utilized in applications where surface cleanliness, non-conductivity, and extreme environment resistance are simultaneously required:

  • Medical and Pharmaceutical Equipment: Used as PEEK Medical Grade Screws in devices and fluid paths that require repeated, harsh sterilization cycles (autoclave) and must have a smooth surface for hygiene.
  • Semiconductor Manufacturing: Applied in wafer processing and handling tools due to its ultra-high purity, resistance to plasma, and extremely low outgassing properties.
  • Aerospace and Defense: Used for securing internal panels, housings, and components in areas where the fastener must be lightweight, thermally stable, and not interfere with air currents (PEEK Screw Aerospace Grade).
  • Scientific and Analytical Equipment: Employed where PEEK Non-Magnetic Countersunk properties and resistance to corrosive media (like strong laboratory chemicals) are essential.

Advantages VS Disadvantage

The choice of PEEK involves prioritizing its superior environmental stability and strength-to-weight ratio over its high cost and ultimate load capacity compared to structural metals.

CategoryAdvantage (Pro)Disadvantage (Con)
PerformanceExtreme Thermal & Chemical Resistance. Highest Strength among all polymer fasteners. Non-Corrosive and Non-Magnetic.Highest Cost: Significantly more expensive than any other plastic and most stainless steel screws.
MechanicalExcellent creep resistance; superior dimensional stability under heat and load.Lower Ultimate Load: Cannot match the absolute tensile/shear strength of high-grade steel screws.
DesignFlush head design for smooth, clean surfaces.Requires extremely controlled installation torque to prevent stripping the material.

Packaging & Delivery

Standard packaging includes PE bag, foam cover, and one double-deck corrugated outer carton for safety during transit. Delivery time is 5-15 working days depending on the quantity.
