PEEK-OPTIMA Wear Performance
Redefining orthopedic device performance possibilities.
Designed for bearing applications against hard counter faces, such as metal and ceramics, PEEK-OPTIMA Wear Performance* combines the excellent material properties of PEEK-OPTIMA Natural with carbon fiber technology. In order to meet the critical demands of orthopedic joint arthroplasty, PEEK-OPTIMA Wear Performance offers:
- Superior wear performance against hard counter faces
- Backed by accepted and validated wear-screening tests
- Design and processing versatility ideal for new arthroplasty devices
- High resistance to creep and fatigue
- Modulus similar to bone for reduced stress shielding and to stimulate bone healing
- Sterilize repeatedly with no degradation using steam, ethylene oxide, gamma or Sterrad™ plasma
- Compatible with x-ray, CT and MRI imaging techniques
