WR®525 Carbon Fiber Filled PEEK™

 

B.I.R.S. Machine & Supply is a distributor or WR®525 carbon fiber filled PEEK™ molded tubes & cylinders.

 

WR®525 is a molded high temperature thermoplastic composite consisting of carbon fiber in a PEEK™matrix. Because of its unique thermal expansion properties, WR525 is ideal for use as impeller wear rings, bushings and case wear rings.

 

WR525 allows the pump user to increase pump efficiency by running tighter wear ring clearances, while decreasing potential pump damage when pumps are cavitated or experience down-line bearing failures. WR525 is API 610 approved for (stationary/stationary and rotating) wear applications.
