PLA

The most common 3D printing material, easy, fast and very cheap to print, great for initial prototypes, models and in some cases light use functional parts.

PETG

Better flexibility and toughness than PLA, also cheap and easy to print, great for light use functional parts with good impact absorption.

ABS

Still in the cheap to print category but better for every day use parts and tools, good flexibility and toughness, commonly used in children’s toys and electronics housings.

TPU

Excellent flexibility and impact protection, commonly used in phone cases, watch bands, flexible hose adapters and grips.

TPU Air

TPU with a twist, a foaming agent causes the material to foam as its printed, creating and almost foam like feeling, great for grips, shock absorbers or even shoe insoles.

Carbon Fiber Nylon

An engineering grade material commonly used for industrial applications, very good strength to weight ratio, with very good toughness. Commonly used in power tool housings and firearms components.

Resin

Uses a different process than the rest, many different types of resins available, excellent for fine detail parts and miniatures.

PPS-CF

Polyphenylene sulfide is an amazingly strong reinforced composite, strong enough to be used in automotive components, very heat and chemical resistant. Crystalline structure gives it the sound of a metal component.

Ultem (Not Available….yet)

The ultimate in 3D printable materials, amazing strength and durability, chemical resistance, and flame resistance. Commonly used in aircraft components due to it’s self extinguishing properties.
