1. From deep-sea ocean floors to outer space, the long-term reliability of high-performance thermoplastic pipes in demanding operating conditions is the key to sustainable engineering success.
2. With all of the benefits of VICTREX™ PEEK polymer in a pipe and tube format, VICTREX™ Pipes serve as a proven, lightweight alternative to metal that significantly enhances overall system performance.
3. VICTREX™ Pipes are extruded from VICTREX™ PEEK Polymer and offer the properties of the high performance thermoplastic in a tube format.
4. VICTREX™ Pipes are semi-finished shapes which are incorporated by our customers into their products.
5. Our customers can provide complete tubing systems due to their forming, lining, sheathing and jointing technologies that they have developed.
6. VICTREX™ PEEK pipes can be effortlessly bent, flared and formed using heat and conventional tube bending equipment.
7. A variety of jointing technology has been tested, including bonding, fusion welding and mechanical connectors, such as crimped, swaged or clamped connectors.
