Victrex PEEK polymer with its superior performance at high temperature, excellent chemical and hydrolysis resistance, and outstanding wear performance make it an ideal choice for engineers and designers looking to meet the challenge of extending part life and lowering machine operating costs

From bearings, bushings, and sleeves to yarn guides and wear strips, components made with VICTREX PEEK high performance materials help keep machinery running at peak productivity levels. Let us help you find a solution tailored to your specific application needs

Typical Applications for Victrex Peek Polymer for Textile Machinery:

VICTREX PEEK polymer offers a significant benefit to original equipment manufacturers who supply machinery to the textile industry by enabling the construction and reproducible mass production of complex, injection moulded components which do not require further processing or machining.

Typical applications for VICTREX PEEK polymer include bearings, bushings, sleeves, wear plates, yarn and thread guides, chain parts, valves, sensors, belts, gears, seal rings, washers, pump components and wire protection. VICTREX PEEK polymer is particularly suited to demanding applications found in high speed spinning, weaving and knitting, as well as a variety of finishing processes including dying, drying, mercerising, fabric printing and embroidering.

The Victrex PEEK, VICOTE and APTIV Film advantage in Textile Machinery:

• Low Friction and Wear Resistance
• Temperature Resistance
• Chemical and Steam Resistance
• Increased Design Flexibility
• Mechanical Strength
• Weight savings, lower moment of inertia

Textile machinery parts featuring VICTREX® PEEK™ polymer, VICTREX® PEEK-HT™, VICOTE® Coatings and APTIV™ Film deliver superior performance, reliability, and increased productivity.
