This 30% carbon fiber reinforced grade combines even higher stiffness, mechanical strength and creep resistance than Ketron® GF30 PEEK SP with an optimum wear resistance. Moreover, compared with unreinforced PEEK, the carbon fibers considerably reduce thermal expansion and provide 3.5 times higher thermal conductivity – dissipating heat from the bearing surface faster, improving bearing life and pressure-velocity capabilities. |
