5010 is a glass fiber reinforced
PEEK (polyetheretherketone) material. It exhibits
higher modulus than VERTEC 5000
(neat PEEK), thus offering more resistance to deformation
under load at elevated temperatures. This material
is an ideal candidate for many structural component
applications carrying high static loads. Due to the
abrasiveness of glass fibers, its use against soft
metal surfaces in dynamic applications must be carefully
examined.
