PEEK Insulated Wire

Zeus PEEK insulated wire was developed specifically for use in challenging environments such as the oil and gas, aerospace, and electrical industries. PEEK insulated wire provides superior abrasion resistance and the ability to withstand intense pressures and exposure to caustic fluids. For some applications, little or no varnish is needed, and slot liners may not be required. PEEK insulated wire is best suited for applications in which hairpin windings are not required, such as in solenoids.

PEEK insulated wire is available with insulation thicknesses ranging from 0.001″ (0.025 mm) to 0.080″ (2.032 mm) and in American Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes #3 to #40.

PEEK Wire High Bond

PEEK wire high bond (HB) offers a step up in performance over our standard PEEK insulated wire. As a single layer solution, PEEK wire HB enables motor designers to optimize insulation thickness and improve PDIV performance over enamel wire, paving the way for next generation motor designs in harsh environments. As a single layer, 100% PEEK solution, PEEK wire HB is ideally suited for applications that require tight bend radii, such as in axial flux motors with hairpin windings. Our patented extrusion technology enables superior bond and adhesion of the PEEK coating to the underlying conductor, resulting in a wire that can be wound tortuously with a reduced risk of delamination.

PEEK wire HB is available with insulation thickness ranging from 0.001” (0.025 mm) to 0.015” (0.381 mm) and in American Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes #8 to #26.

Both Zeus PEEK insulated wire and PEEK wire HB are 100% AC spark tested during extrusion.* Both PEEK insulated wire and PEEK wire HB are available by custom order. We can coat both wires in round, square, and rectangular profiles. We can also provide PEEK insulated wire over stranded, plated, and other wire forms. Splicing can be accomplished using Zeus PEEKshrink^® heat shrink tubing.

PEEK wire HB utilizing bare annealed solid round copper wire meets ASTM B-3 standards.

*At coating thicknesses less than 0.001” (0.025 mm), PEEK wire HB exhibits no more than 15 spark faults per 100 feet. Between 0.001” and 0.002” (0.025 – 0.051 mm), PEEK wire HB exhibits no more than three spark faults per 100 feet. At thicknesses > 0.002” (0.051 mm), PEEK wire HB show no spark faults. Allowances for PEEK insulated wire are customized and based on various design requirements.
