PEEK Threaded Rod for Hydrochloric Acid Resistance

Q: I’m looking for  threaded rods and nuts that would need to be able to withstand a potential exposure to ferric chloride and constant exposure to 3% hydrochloric acid which could reach 31% in a rare instance, would this PEEK withstand these chemicals?

A: PEEK fasteners work well with harsh chemicals. Regarding the HCl, PEEK threaded rod can handle the HCl is at ambient temperatures and a variety of PEEK can handle the concentrated 31% hydrochloric acid.
