If you put "Stryker peek cage" into Google, you'll see that the first word of the first hit is ] "polyether ether ketone"

I also got a good result by googling "peek wiki"

"peek stryker" will give you the Stryker website, where you'll see that they use all caps.

All of these are probably faster than posting.

BOS Rule For Drug Names In All Caps?
