OVERVIEW of PEEKshrink® Tubing

PEEKshrink® Tubing secures performance of sensitive items in challenging environments. PEEK, a linear, semi-crystalline aromatic polymer, is considered the highest performing thermoplastic material due to its ability to withstand extreme temperatures, high pressure and caustic fluids. Now Zeus has taken PEEK to an entirely new level of performance with the introduction of PEEKshrink® — PEEK heat-shrinkable tubing. PEEKshrink® provides a "shrink to fit" layer of protection for sensitive or critical components used in a variety of applications such as medical devices, electronics, telecom hardware and oil exploration equipment. The polymer's inherent purity and lubricity make it an ideal choice for analytical and life sciences applications.

An alternative to traditional protective coatings like Teflon, PEEKshrink® is ideally suited for challenging environments where extreme heat or cold, intense pressure, chemicals, water, or dielectric interference pose a threat to wires and electrical components. When shrunk onto components, PEEKshrink® forms an impenetrable "second skin" that is impervious to contaminants, preserving the integrity and performance of whatever is inside.

PEEKshrink® Tubing Sample Applications:
  • Electrical component covering
  • Medical device protection
  • Wire/cable encapsulation or insulation
  • Impact and wear resistant insulation

    Technical Notes:
  • Ideal for shrinking on wire or round mandrels
  • Shrink results can be achieved with a variety of heat shrink systems:
  • IR Oven
  • Convection Oven
  • Heat Gun
