PEEK Bolts

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

PEEK bolts, made from polyetheretherketone, are high-performance thermoplastic fasteners engineered to deliver exceptional strength, chemical resistance, and thermal stability up to 500°F (260°C). These bolts offer a unique balance of mechanical robustness and lightweight design, making them an ideal alternative to metal fasteners in critical applications.

Their outstanding properties include resistance to harsh chemicals, oils, solvents, and hydrolysis, enabling them to maintain dimensional stability and mechanical integrity even under continuous exposure to steam, water, and corrosive environments. PEEK bolts also exhibit excellent wear resistance, low friction coefficients, and low outgassing, which is crucial for ultra-high vacuum (UHV) systems and sensitive electronic assemblies.

Widely used in aerospace for weight reduction and fatigue resistance, PEEK bolts help improve fuel efficiency and extend service intervals. In the medical field, their biocompatibility and sterilization tolerance make them suitable for implants and surgical instruments. The electronics industry benefits from their electrical insulation properties and ability to reduce noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) in devices ranging from smartphones to circuit boards.

PEEK bolts can be reinforced with glass or carbon fibers for enhanced stiffness and strength, supporting applications that exceed 350°F (175°C). Their flame retardancy (V-0 rating) and radiation resistance further expand their usability in demanding environments such as oil & gas monitoring, semiconductor manufacturing, and particle physics research.

Available in various head styles including hex bolts, these fasteners can be custom manufactured to meet specific industry standards and requirements, ensuring reliable performance in critical assemblies.

By choosing PEEK bolts, industries achieve superior durability, chemical inertness, and thermal endurance while benefiting from reduced weight and improved operational efficiency.
