Materials
Choose by what the part must do — strength, flex, detail or display. We match the right material in your quote.
Easy-print plant-based filament with a clean surface and wide colour range. Ideal indoors.
Best for prototypes, display models, concept parts
Tough everyday filament with light flex and good layer bonding for real-use parts.
Best for brackets, enclosures, daily-use parts
Tough engineering filament for functional indoor parts that need heat resistance and a durable shell. Priced separately from ASA.
Best for enclosures, jigs, heat-prone indoor fixtures
Properties High impact strength · Heat resistance ~95–100°C · Easy to post-process (sand, acetone vapour) · Indoor use preferred · Not UV-stable outdoors
Weather-ready engineering filament with UV stability for outdoor and vehicle use. Different material and cost from ABS.
Best for outdoor fixtures, vehicle trims, garden & site hardware
Properties UV & weather resistant · Heat resistance similar to ABS · Good layer bonding · Colour-stable outdoors · Slightly higher material cost than ABS
Rubber-like flexible filament that bends without cracking — soft grips and seals. We stock three Shore hardness grades.
Best for grips, seals, bumpers, soft cases
TPU options TPU 85A — soft & stretchy (gaskets, soft grips) · TPU 90A — balanced flex for everyday flexible parts · TPU 95A — firmer, more abrasion-resistant (wheels, protective shells)
Strong, wear-resistant engineering filament for parts that move, load or rub. We stock three PA filament grades.
Best for gears, hinges, high-wear parts
PA options PA6 — strong & tough general engineering · PA12 — lower moisture uptake, more dimensionally stable · PA6-CF — carbon-fibre filled for extra stiffness & wear resistance
Liquid photopolymer for ultra-fine detail and smooth surfaces on small precision pieces.
Best for miniatures, jewellery masters, fine detail
