PEEK

PEEK, invented in 1978, is a beige colored organic thermoplastic polymer in the PAEK family.

PEEK Filament is one of the highest-performance materials on the market. Exceptional mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties make this an ideal material for the most demanding applications.

PEEK is one of the most difficult thermoplastics to print, mainly considering its high viscosity. It is also difficult to achieve good dimensional tolerances because of its high shrink rate. Carbon Fiber Enforced PEEK, which is also sold on this site, has much better tolerances and is much easier to work with.
