Product Texts
Implantable grade polyether ether ketone plates for permanent implants 
VESTAKEEP® i4 PL are plates based on implantable grade VESTAKEEP® i4 G neat polyether ether ketone resin.
 
Proven Biocompatibility of VESTAKEEP® i-Grades

The extra high purity and extended quality measures make VESTAKEEP® i-Grade materials an excellent choice for permanent implants.

For VESTAKEEP® i4 PL, biocompatibility has been tested according to ISO 10993-1 recommendations for permanent tissue/bone contact and USP Class VI.

VESTAKEEP® i4 PL complies ASTM F2026 “Standard Specification for Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) Polymers for Surgical Implant Applications”.

A summary of biocompatibility test results is available upon request.
 
Biocompatibility tests available for i4 PL

 
Delivery of VESTAKEEP® i-Grades
VESTAKEEP® i4 PL plates have thickness of up to 60 mm, standard width of 500 mm and standard length of 1000 mm.

Custom lengths are also available
