Best for outdoor use, parts made from these ASA filaments are UV resistant, so they won't warp or crack from prolonged sun exposure. They’re also durable, so they absorb impact without breaking and won’t degrade when heated.

Use with fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printer. These filaments have a high melting point and must be printed onto a heated bed. Without it, parts will cool too quickly and warp. These filaments also release fumes as they are printed, so use an enclosed printer or a fume exhauster to ventilate them.

Tensile strength is the best measure of a filament's overall strength. Similar to the stress applied on a rope during a game of tug-of-war, it's the amount of pulling force a material can handle before breaking. A higher rating means a stronger filament. A tensile strength of 5,000 psi and above is considered good; 12,000 psi and above is excellent.

Maximum exposure temperature is the point at which a printed part will begin to deform. Above this temperature, your printed parts will start to lose structural integrity.

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.

These filaments also release fumes as they are printed, so use an enclosed printer or a fume exhauster to ventilate them.

Carbon-fiber-filled polycarbonate filaments make rigid parts that are difficult to bend and break. Parts made from these filaments can also be threaded and machined more easily than parts made from polycarbonate filaments without a filler. Fiberglass-filled polycarbonate filaments make parts that are less likely to warp or shrink than parts made from polycarbonate filaments without a filler. Both carbon-fiber- and fiberglass-filled filaments are abrasive, so you should use them with an abrasion-resistant nozzle.

Static-dissipative filaments make parts that protect equipment from electrostatic shocks by diverting electrostatic discharges in a controlled way. Use them to create tool handles, tote trays, enclosures, and other parts that are used near sensitive electronics. To adjust the surface resistivity of your printed part, change the temperature of your printer’s extruder. As the extruder’s temperature increases, the printed part’s resistivity will decrease.

UL 94 V-0 rated filaments meet strict flammability standards. Use them to create holders, guards, housings, and other parts that protect sensitive, flammable equipment and machinery.

Maximum exposure temperature is the point at which a printed part will begin to deform. Above this temperature, your printed parts will start to lose structural integrity.

Print tough, long-lasting parts that won’t scratch or wear out from constant motion and friction, such as gears and washers. You can even tap or drill the parts without them cracking or shattering.

Use these filaments with fused filament fabrication (FFF) printers. Because of their relatively high melting point, a heated printer bed is recommended. These filaments also emit fumes when printing, so it’s best to use them in an enclosed printer or to remove the fumes with a fume exhauster. Store them in a sealed container with a desiccant so they don’t absorb moisture in the air, which can make them unusable.

Carbon-fiber-filled nylon filaments make rigid parts that are difficult to bend and break. Their parts can also be threaded and machined more easily than the same filaments without any filler. However, they’re abrasive, so only use them with abrasion-resistant nozzles.

Stretchy, soft, and sturdy, these filaments make durable parts that resist breakage despite repeated use. Stronger than ABS and PLA filaments, they create long-lasting parts, such as seals, sleeves, and gaskets, as well as components that take on high-impact forces, such as springs and snap-fit parts. These filaments don't require a heated printer bed, and they won't shrink or warp when cooling. Use them with a fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printer. In general, these flexible filaments require a slow feed rate so they don't jam. The softer your filament, the slower your feed rate will need to be. Store them in a sealed container with a desiccant, or use a dehumidifying cabinet, since ambient humidity will cause the plastic to degrade and weaken.

Static-dissipative filaments make parts that protect equipment from electrostatic shocks by diverting electrostatic discharges in a controlled way. Use them to create tool handles, tote trays, enclosures, and other parts that are used near sensitive electronics. They meet ANSI/ESD and IEC standards for manufacturing, packaging, transporting, and storing items that can be damaged by electrostatic shocks.

Conductive filaments can be used to create circuit prototypes and other conductive pathways.

You can adjust the surface resistivity in static dissipative and conductive filaments by changing the temperature of your printer's extruder. As the extruder’s temperature increases, the printed part’s resistivity will decrease.

For the most flexible parts, use durometer 85A or 80A filaments. They're more flexible than other TPU filaments. For a quick print without sacrificing flexibility, choose durometer 95A filaments. They print much faster than other TPU filaments. Durometer 74D filaments make tough, durable parts that act similar to a tire tread—flexing repeatedly without cracking.

With nylon as an additive, PCTPE filaments are flexible, slippery, and wear resistant. They’re good for making sturdy components that move and rub against other objects. Since they're UL rated 94 HB and 94 V-2, they prevent the spread of flames both horizontally and vertically.

Print these filaments on a fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printer. Because they’re flexible, they require a slow feed rate so they don’t jam. Store them in a sealed container with a desiccant, or use a dehumidifying cabinet, since moisture in the air can degrade their printing quality.

Build parts and prototypes from these filaments using Dremel fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printers. An RFID tag on the spool communicates with your printer, automatically adjusting it to the correct temperature and print speed for the filament material and notifying you when the filament is running out.

Nylon resists scratches and wear, and is often used to create parts that encounter constant friction such as gears or bearings. Nylon parts also won’t crack or shatter when they’re drilled or tapped. Exposure to humidity makes these filaments brittle and unusable, so they need to be stored in a sealed container with a desiccant. Like ECO-ABS, parts can warp during cooling and need a heated printer bed. Make sure your printer is connected to a ventilation system, as nylon emits fumes during printing.

Parts printed with these polyester filaments absorb less moisture than other types of plastic, making them ideal for use in wet or humid environments. They are more durable and flexible than PLA, and easier to print than ABS. Use these filaments with fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printers, and print onto a heated print bed. Printing onto a cool surface causes the molten filament to change temperature rapidly, which can warp your designs. Although finished parts are moisture-resistant, these filaments are sensitive to humidity, and should be stored in a dehumidifying cabinet or a sealed container with desiccant for the best printing quality.

PCTG is more impact resistant than PETT and PETG and holds up to a wide range of acids and bases without breaking down. It is often used for printing parts that will be exposed to chemicals and oils.
