RTP Corporation Introduces New PEEK Sheets for Industrial Pumps, Valves, and Seals

RTP sheets and film offices are often stocked with polyetheretherketone (PEEK) sheets of different thicknesses, and generally only provide customized products. RTP's PEEK products have 5 x 2 "x 4" sheets of different thickness distributed over a range of 0.5 mm (0.020 inch) to 3.0 mm (0.118 inch). Sarah Holthaus, Product Manager and Domestic Sales, RTP Sheet and Film Division, said: "Finding standing PEEK sheet products thicker than 0.5" is difficult in stock-holding companies. Of RTP's new product offerings, Customers will have the opportunity to buy PEEK sheets with market price advantage and immediately get a thickness that can not be found elsewhere in the industry.This creates opportunities for those new PEEK material costs that do not allow for possible areas of application, The material consumption increases the profitability of the product. "PEEK is a high strength, high temperature resistant resin with excellent mechanical properties and resistance to chemicals. It has excellent wear resistance and dimensional stability. In addition, RTP can produce FDA-certified PEEK sheets. These properties make PEEK materials ideal for demanding sheet applications such as automotive and aerospace components, industrial pumps, valves and seals; silicon wafer carriers; and products for the pharmaceutical and food industries. RTP's 2 x 4 inch PEEK sheets are available in sizes of 0.5 mm (0.020 inch), 1.0 mm (0.039 inch), 1.5 mm (0.059 inch), 2.0 mm (0.079 inch) and 3.0 mm ). Can buy a large number of sheets or a small amount, you can immediately transport. In addition, 4 x 4 ft PEEK sheets of the same thickness range can be ordered according to customer's specific requirements. In September 2006, RTP acquired Wiman, a maker of custom films for the well-known medical, industrial and consumer markets. The acquisition combines RTP's advanced sheet manufacturing with a broad range of polymer expertise with all of Wiman's flexible packaging film lines. From PVC resins to PEEK resins, which vary in thickness from 0.004 inches to 0.400 inches, RTP's sheet and film division now has a strong product portfolio.
