AKROTEK®

PK-HM natural (4773)PK

PK-HM natural (4773) is an unreinforced Polyketone with average flowability. The outstanding friction and wear properties enable the use for demanding components exposed to tribological stress. PK is characterized by its outstanding media resistance, which qualifies it to be used for components that are in contact with chemicals. The most important markets for AKROTEK® PK are the automotive and furniture industry and mechanical engineering.
