Filament Spectrum HIPS-X 1.75mm BAHAMA YELLOW 1kg

Product detailed description

High impact resistance

Spectrum HIPS-X is a carrier material for additive manufacturing for FDM/FFF technology. It is typically used as a support for components made from ABS where the HIPS-X carriers are dissolved with D-Limonene after the manufacturing process is complete. In addition, you can use Spectrum HIPS-X as a base material for manufacturing parts that require less shrinkage during processing compared to ABS.

Spectrum HIPS-X has high impact and compression resistance. It also makes it possible to obtain matt surfaces with reduced layer visibility. Similar to ABS, HIPS-X allows mechanical finishing such as grinding, turning, milling, etc. The low hardness of the printed items allows easy separation of parts of the material with sharp tools.

Key features:

improved aesthetic properties thanks to matt surfaces of printed items
lower shrinkage rate than conventional ABS
possibility of mechanical processing (drilling, turning, milling or grinding)
heat resistance - HDT B 88°C
Softening temperature according to Vicat - 96°C
high impact resistance
ability to absorb and dissipate energy
good for large prints
light
fully soluble in D-limonene
matt surface
App:

carrier material for ABS
industrial applications requiring impact resistant components or components with partial energy dissipation capability
concept and demo prototyping of designed finished and semi-finished products
cover
Spectrum HIPS-X, which is mainly used as a load bearing material, is also designed for industrial applications that require impact resistant components or components with partial energy dissipation capability. Due to its low hardness, HIPS-X can be used in art, specifically in sculpture.
