VICTREX® PEEK™ polymer is the choice for a wide range of industrial applications.

VICTREX PEEK is a high-performance polymer whose superior combination of properties makes it particularly attractive to industries such as chemical processing, energy (oil and gas, nuclear, and hydropower), compressor and pump OEMs and many others. Driven by stringent requirements for longer -life parts and reduced maintenance downtimes, VICTREX PEEK improves temperature and chemical resistance, lowers part weight, reduces noise levels and decreases or eliminates the need for lubricants. 

The VICTREX PEEK Advantage:

• Outstanding mechanical performance in both high temperature and cryogenic conditions
• Withstands higher continuous operating temperatures versus competitive materials; one of  the most thermally stable thermoplastics on the market
• Excellent dynamic fatigue resistance and high creep resistance
• Excellent hydrolysis resistance - extremely low permeability and highly resistant to rapid gas decompression events
• High performance tribological properties and very low wear
• High chemical resistance to avoid corrosion
• Withstands high continuous operating temperatures; very thermally stable
• Great hydrolysis resistance; unique ability to retain mechanical properties and dimensional stability when exposed to water or steam at elevated temperatures
• Superior chemical resistance to a wide range of chemicals

VICTREX PEEK polymer is increasingly being used in the Oil and Gas industry where its outstanding properties make it the material of choice for applications ranging from seal rings and down hole connectors, to high performance pipes and tubes.  VICTREX PEEK high perfomance polymer is also widely used as a cable sheath or wire coat since the polymer withstands the harshest of environments.  Replacing stainless steel in impeller wheels for regenerative pumps, and metal or lesser performing plastic valves and rings in compressor applications, VICTREX PEEK polymer provides significant reduction in wear, reduced noise levels and more consistent operational performance.
