Engineered for exceptional mechanical strength, anti-static properties, and low friction, this high-performance ESD PEEK material is the perfect solution for applications requiring both reliability and static control.




What is ARKPEEK-ESD®?

ARKPEEK-ESD® is a specialized Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)-safe grade of PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone), designed to prevent static buildup while maintaining the superior mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties of standard PEEK. Its unique combination of strength, wear resistance, and conductivity makes it the preferred choice for industries such as semiconductors, aerospace, medical devices, and high-precision electronics.

For manufacturers seeking PEEK ESD-safe solutions, ARKPEEK-ESD® is available in various forms, including:

  • ESD PEEK sheets

  • ESD PEEK rods

  • Custom-machined ESD PEEK components

This versatility ensures compatibility with a wide range of high-performance applications.




Key Properties of ARKPEEK-ESD®

Superior Mechanical Strength

  • Tensile Strength: 113 MPa (ISO 527) – Higher than standard ESD-safe polymers.

  • Compressive Strength: 120 MPa (ISO 604) – Ensures structural integrity under high loads.

  • Bending Strength: 127 MPa (ISO 178) – High rigidity and flexural resistance.

Exceptional ESD Protection

  • Surface Resistivity: 10⁶ – 10⁹ Ω (GB/T 1410-2006) – Prevents electrostatic damage in sensitive environments.

High Wear Resistance & Low Friction

  • Coefficient of Friction: 0.32 (ASTM D3702) – Minimizes material wear in dynamic applications.

Optimized Hardness & Impact Resistance

  • Shore Hardness: 90 (ISO 868) – Ensures durability without compromising machinability.

  • Impact Strength: 120 kJ/m² (ISO 179) – High resistance to impact in demanding environments.

These ESD PEEK properties make ARKPEEK-ESD® an excellent choice for industries that require static control, high mechanical durability, and superior heat resistance.
