PEEK Isolator

This part is also included in the Hot End v2 bundle. It’s one of the essential parts for trouble free extrusion. PEEK is a thermoplast that is stable at very high temperatures, common applications include aerospace and other high pressure high-temperature applications. Because this PEEK is part glass filled, it has a higher thermal stability than most machined PEEK parts you can buy. Properties of the PEEK material:

• High temperature resistance of 285C

• Excellent toughness with high rigidity and fatigue resistance

• Self-lubrication, wear resistance, has the best slide performance in all the plastics

• Can be used in the requirement of low coefficient of friction

• Excellent resistance to hydrolysis

• Excellent chemical resistance, similar to nickel steel

• Resistance to radiation (the last thing you want during a nuclear war is your extruder failing on you!)

This part is compatible with the complete Ultimaker Original and Ultimaker Original+.
