FDM / MATERIAL PROFILE

PEKK

PEKK is a high-performance plastic from the aromatic ketone family, offering additional design freedom for demanding functional parts.

Illustrative PEKK component
YOUR POSSIBILITIES

Typical applications

PEKK is suitable for demanding housings, assembly components, fixtures and technical prototypes with complex geometries.

YOUR BENEFITS

Why PEKK?

The material combines high mechanical performance with a sound basis for applications exposed to heat and chemicals.

Performance profile

Heat deflection temperature (HDT)
up to 182 °C
Tensile strength
up to 105 MPa
Elongation at break
up to 10 %
Tensile modulus
up to 3,200 MPa

Ideas for your application

Machinery and plant engineering, development departments and custom tooling and test fixtures.

Surface and appearance

An opaque, technical-looking surface; visible layers depend on the geometry.

Designing your part to fit

Keep functional surfaces accessible and account for thermally induced dimensional changes. Rounded transitions support strong designs.

Finishing and post-processing

Holes and fitted seats can be post-processed. Targeted heat treatment is coordinated with dimensional accuracy and intended use.
