Description

PEEK is a thermoplastic polymer.

It is a biocompatible material with high tensile strength, heat resistance, and hardness, while also the anti-fatigue performance of PEEK material is the best among all current materials.

These excellent properties make it an ideal choice for laparoscopic instruments.
