PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone) Balls
Ball Bearing
High-Strength, High-Temperature & Chemically Resistant
PEEK balls from Atlas Ball & Bearing deliver exceptional mechanical strength, outstanding thermal stability, and excellent chemical resistance. Designed for extreme environments, these PEEK plastic balls are ideal for high-load, high-temperature, and chemically aggressive applications where standard plastics cannot perform.
Manufactured from engineering-grade polyether ether ketone (PEEK), these balls maintain their strength and dimensional stability at elevated temperatures and offer excellent wear performance in both dry and lubricated systems.

Useful terms and definitions
Batch or Lot:
A defined quantity of balls manufactured under conditions presumed to be uniform and which is considered an entity.
Nominal Ball Diameter:
The diameter value that is used for the general identification of a ball size.
Single Ball Diameter:
The distance between two parallel planes tangential to the actual ball surface.
Diameter Tolerance per Batch:
The allowed difference between the smallest measured ball diameter and the largest ball diameter within the same batch or lot quantity.
Sphericity:
A measure of roundness expressed as the difference between the measured roundness of a ball and a theoretically perfectly round ball.
Surface Finish or Roughness:
A measure of the texture of a surface. It is quantified by the vertical deviations of the actual surface from its ideal form. If these deviations are large, the surface is rough; if they are small, the surface is smooth.
