JTYPEI®NA, JUTAI manufactures Ultem™ 1000 PEI sheets made from virgin SABIC resin with excellent heat resistance, electrical insulation, dimensional stability, custom cutting and CNC machining services.
 

ULTEM™ 1000 PEI Sheet for Precision Milling

JTYPEI® NA is an unfilled, natural amber polyetherimide sheet manufactured for flat, rectangular and plate-shaped components used in electrical, semiconductor, industrial, aerospace, medical equipment and new-energy applications.

The amorphous structure of PEI provides an excellent combination of mechanical strength, dimensional stability, electrical insulation, inherent flame resistance and reliable long-term thermal performance.

Compared with machining flat components from round rod, PEI sheet provides better material utilization for mounting plates, insulating panels, equipment bases, frames, covers, trays, fixtures and rectangular machined components.

JTYPEI® NA sheets are available in thicknesses from 1 to 100 mm. Standard widths include 620 mm and 1,240 mm, with lengths of 1,000 mm, 2,000 mm and 3,000 mm available depending on thickness and production requirements.

Customized cutting, thicknesses, panel dimensions and machining tolerances can be evaluated according to the application, order quantity and manufacturing process.

SABIC ULTEM™ 1000 resin can be supplied for customers requiring a recognized resin grade, material traceability and supporting resin documentation.

ULTEM™ is a trademark of SABIC.

Why Choose PEI Sheet Instead of PEI Rod?

PEI sheet is the more efficient stock shape for components with predominantly flat, rectangular or plate-like geometry.

Typical examples include:

• Electrical insulating panels
• Mounting plates
• Fixture bases
• Semiconductor equipment plates
• Equipment covers
• Structural frames
• Machined blocks
• Inspection fixtures
• Support plates
• Trays and holders
• Flat spacers
• Electrical barriers
• Instrument panels
• Manifold-style components

Using sheet for these components can reduce material waste, shorten milling time and simplify clamping compared with machining the same geometry from an oversized rod.

For cylindrical components such as bushings, rollers, sleeves and round spacers, PEI rod normally provides better material utilization.

Key Properties of ULTEM™ 1000 PEI Sheet

Long-Term Heat Resistance

JTYPEI® NA can provide reliable long-term performance at temperatures up to approximately 170°C, depending on mechanical load, pressure, chemical exposure, component geometry and other operating conditions.

The typical glass transition temperature of natural PEI is approximately 217°C.

The glass transition temperature should not be treated as the recommended continuous operating temperature of a finished component.

Final suitability must be evaluated according to the actual operating temperature, exposure duration, mechanical stress and environmental conditions.

Dimensional Stability

PEI offers low moisture absorption, good creep resistance and relatively low thermal expansion compared with many conventional engineering plastics.

These properties help milled plates, frames and fixtures maintain their dimensions during assembly, temperature changes and long-term operation.

For components requiring tight flatness, parallelism or dimensional tolerances, controlled annealing may be required before, during or after machining.

Electrical Insulation

Natural unfilled PEI provides high volume resistivity, good dielectric strength and stable electrical performance over a wide temperature and frequency range.

PEI sheet is particularly suitable for flat components that must provide both structural support and electrical separation.

Typical examples include:

• High-voltage insulating plates
• Electrical barriers
• Connector mounting panels
• Sensor support plates
• Battery insulation components
• Test-equipment bases
• Terminal support plates
• Semiconductor equipment fixtures

Mechanical Strength

JTYPEI® NA provides high tensile and flexural strength together with a favorable strength-to-weight ratio.

The material is suitable for precision plates, mounting components, equipment supports and other parts requiring a combination of stiffness, electrical insulation and reduced weight.

Component thickness, mounting method, unsupported span and operating temperature must be considered during structural design.

Inherent Flame Resistance

PEI is inherently flame-resistant in many standard formulations and can provide low smoke generation.

A UL94 V-0 rating may be available depending on the selected resin grade, sheet thickness and test conditions.

Compliance with aviation, railway, electrical or other industry-specific flame and smoke requirements must be confirmed according to the selected resin grade and finished component.

Chemical Resistance

JTYPEI® NA offers good resistance to many oils, fuels, hydrocarbons, alcohols, weak acids, hot water and industrial cleaning environments.

However, PEI may be affected by:

• Strong alkalis
• Chlorinated solvents
• Certain polar solvents
• Chemical exposure combined with high mechanical stress
• Aggressive chemicals at elevated temperatures

Chemical compatibility should be evaluated according to the actual medium, concentration, temperature, pressure, exposure time and mechanical load.

Machinability

PEI sheet is suitable for:

• CNC milling
• Drilling
• Pocket machining
• Profiling
• Engraving
• Surface machining
• Thread machining
• Cut-to-size fabrication
• Precision dimensional inspection

Sharp tools, suitable cutting parameters, stable clamping and adequate cooling should be used to minimize cutting heat and internal stress.

Machining Recommendations

Cutting and Milling

Use sharp carbide or tungsten-carbide tools suitable for aluminum and engineering plastics.

Apply stable, evenly distributed clamping pressure. Excessive point loading can deform the sheet or create internal stress.

Pocket Machining

For components requiring extensive pocket machining, remove material gradually and maintain balanced machining on both sides where possible.

Large, uneven material removal may release internal stress and affect flatness.

Drilling

For large-diameter holes, begin with a smaller pilot hole and gradually enlarge the hole.

Avoid excessive feed rates, heat accumulation and direct drilling with oversized tools.

Cooling

Use adequate cooling to prevent excessive cutting heat, material burning, tool adhesion and dimensional instability.

Water-soluble cutting fluids may be used where appropriate, subject to final cleaning and application requirements.

Annealing

Annealing should be considered for:

• Large machined plates
• Tight-tolerance components
• Parts requiring extensive material removal
• Thin-wall frames
• Components with large differences in wall thickness
• Parts used at elevated temperatures
• Components requiring multiple machining stages
• Parts with demanding flatness or parallelism requirements

For high-precision components, rough machining followed by intermediate annealing and final machining may improve dimensional stability.

Storage Recommendations

Store PEI sheets:

• Away from direct sunlight
• In a clean and dry environment
• Away from moisture, dust and oily substances
• On a flat and properly supported surface
• With protective film or suitable packaging when not in use
• Without excessive stacking pressure on thin sheets

Allow the material to reach the machining-room temperature before precision machining or dimensional inspection.
