Stretchy, soft, and sturdy, these filaments make durable parts that resist wear and breakage despite repeated use. Stronger than ABS and PLA filaments, they create long-lasting, wear-resistant parts, such as seals, sleeves, and gaskets, as well as components that take on high-impact forces, such as springs and snap-fit parts.

Often used to monitor UV exposure and test UV curing and sterilization equipment, parts made from these filaments change color when exposed to the sun or UV lights.

Create strong, durable parts that carry heavy loads and absorb blows and other impact without cracking or breaking. Made of polycarbonate, these filaments are stronger and resist heat better than other impact-resistant filaments, such as those made from ABS or ASA.

When 3D printing a model with overhangs or hollow spaces, use these filaments to prevent the model from losing its shape. They support the structure during the printing and cooling process, then dissolve or snap away once the part is hardened.

Print tough, long-lasting parts that won’t scratch or wear out from constant motion and friction, such as gears and washers.

Create molds around parts printed with these filaments. They’re PVB, so they vaporize cleanly from your mold similar to wax in traditional investment casting and lost wax casting.

Build parts and prototypes from these filaments using Dremel fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printers.

Fabricate custom bottles, packaging, and other parts for chemical processing.

Often used to make parts that will be used near ovens, engines, and other hot machinery, these PEI filaments remain strong and rigid in temperatures that would soften most plastic.
