PEEK Plates



 Premium c: High-Performance Steel-Backed PEEK & PTFE Solutions

Elevate your machinery’s reliability with our PEEK Series Sliding Plates. While standard PTFE-based plates are limited by wear rates in high-stress environments, our PEEK series incorporates an advanced PEEK and PTFE composite overlaid on a robust steel foundation. This specialized material matrix is engineered to provide superior wear resistance and high PV capability, specifically for applications operating under high temperatures and demanding mechanical stress where conventional plates often fail.


Why Choose PEEK Steel-Backed Sliding Plates?

The primary advantage of the PEEK series lies in its Enhanced Wear Resistance and Extreme Temperature Stability. By integrating PEEK (Polyether ether ketone) into the sliding surface, these plates offer significant performance differentiation:

  • Superior Wear & Friction Control: The PEEK/PTFE mixture (0.30~0.50mm) provides exceptionally high wear resistance and maintains low friction even when only minute quantities of lubricant are supplied.
  • High PV Capability at High Temperatures: Engineered to maintain high PV performance across an extreme temperature range, from -150°C to +250°C.
  • Maintenance-Free & Versatile: Provides maintenance-free operation and performs satisfactorily without lubrication under light-duty and low-speed conditions.
  • Zero Water Absorption: Unlike many plastic-based alternatives, these plates feature no water absorption, preventing dimensional swelling and ensuring precise movement.
  • Multi-Directional Motion: Optimized for rotating, oscillating, reciprocating, and sliding movements with high static and dynamic capacity.

Advanced Four-Layer Structural Engineering

The PEEK series is built with a precision-engineered four-layer structure designed for maximum thermal and mechanical efficiency:

  1. PEEK + PTFE Overlay (0.30~0.50mm): This thick bearing layer features a pattern of circular indents designed to be filled with grease upon assembly, ensuring long-term lubrication and extreme durability.
  2. Sintered Bronze Layer (0.20~0.35mm): This interlayer provides maximum thermal conductivity to dissipate heat away from the bearing surface and acts as a secure reservoir for the PEEK/PTFE mixture.
  3. Low-Carbon Steel Backing: The structural core that grants the plate its mechanical strength and high load-carrying capacity.
  4. Copper/Tin Plating (0.002mm): A specialized exterior coating that provides essential corrosion resistance for the steel backing.

Typical Applications

PEEK sliding plates are recommended for high-performance systems, particularly those with initial pre-lubrication at assembly:

  • Hydraulics & Fluid Power: High-duty gear pumps, piston pumps, and gear motors.
  • Automotive Systems: Advanced ABS systems and heavy-duty suspension components.
  • Precision Machinery: Industrial machine tools and high-load agricultural machinery.
  • High-Temperature Processing: Equipment operating in extreme thermal environments where standard lubricants degrade.

Expert Guidance & Technical Support

Choosing between PEEK plates and standard DU/DUB plates depends on your specific thermal and wear requirements. While DU plates are excellent for general-purpose self-lubrication, the PEEK series is the premier choice for higher temperatures and environments requiring maximum wear life.
