General Info
AvaSpire ® PAEK is a modified polyaryletherketone (PAEK) that offers improved ductility and impact strength relative to PEEK while retaining most of PEEK's key performance attributes. Additionally, AvaSpire PAEK generally offers improved part economics relative to unmodified PEEK resin. These and other properties make this material well-suited for applications in healthcare, transportation, electronics, chemical processing, and other industries

Manufacturer Trade Names
Boedeker Plastics, Inc. stocks & supplies plastic sheet, rod, tube, film and custom profiles and machine parts from these shapes that are produced from plastic resin. In many cases the manufacturer of the shape has their own product trade name. If your specification calls for a specific resin grade or manufacturer trade name, we can supply a shape made from that resin to meet your specification or suggest an equal. If you require a specific resin or brand it must be specified at the time of order.
