Ketron Engineering Plastic is Exceptionally Advanced
For many reasons, Ketron is considered to be an exceptionally advanced type of plastic. It can be subjected to high temperatures of 482° F for repeated periods of time and as much as 590° F for short bursts of time, without any of its properties altering including its strength and wear resistance. This special plastic has high levels of stiffness, mechanical strength, and creep resistance, and has high resistant levels to hydrolysis and chemicals. When compared to other advanced plastics, Ketron's wear and frictional behavior are deemed excellent.
Like many other types of plastics, there are various kinds of Ketron that have been developed for diverse use. Typically, however, the parts that are created from this material are often utilized for replacing metal parts. This often includes items like rollers, gears, high temperature insulators, and pump components among other things.
There are different grades of Ketron including PEEK (Polyether ether ketone) 1000, PEEK GF30, PEEK CA30, PEEK LSG, and PEEK HPV. Each grade has its own unique formula that makes it particularly beneficial and ideal for certain applications. Furthermore, Ketron makes manufacturing products a much easier task, which 'in the long run - is good for both businesses and consumers alike.
