Material
Glass Fiber PEEK
Glass fiber PEEK is PEEK reinforced with glass fiber for better creep resistance, stiffness, and dimensional stability under sustained load at high temperature, with PEEK’s broad chemical resistance, though it is less suited to wear applications.

About
Glass fiber PEEK is PEEK filled with glass fiber, which improves stiffness, creep resistance, and dimensional stability compared with unfilled PEEK. It keeps PEEK’s resistance to automotive fluids and most solvents (concentrated sulfuric and nitric acid and halogens attack it) and its inherent flame resistance, but it is less ductile and less suited to bearing or wear parts, since glass fiber is abrasive.
Glass fiber PEEK is a good option for parts under high static loads for long periods at high temperature.
