Carbon fiber-reinforced, graphite and PTFE-filled polyether ether ketone

VESTAKEEP 4000 FC30 is a carbon fiberreinforced, graphite and PTFE-filled polyether ether ketone for injection molding. Parts made of this resin can be used for bearing bushing or gearbox parts due to the self-lubricating effect.

The semi-crystalline polymer features superior mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance. Parts made from VESTAKEEP 4000 FC30 are self-extinguishing.

VESTAKEEP 4000 FC30 can be processed by common injection molding machines for thermoplastics.

We recommend a melt temperature between 370°C and 380°C during the injection molding process. If temperatures exceed 380°C, toxic gases can be released. Adequate ventilation and protective equipment must be provided. The mold temperature should be within a range of 160°C to 200°C, preferably 180°C.
