Description

PES Pellets


Ideal for home extrusion enthusiasts. Â Make your own PES filament with a home-extruder such as the Filabot and Filastruder or others that are set-up for high-temp extrusion.Processing Recommendations:
  • Pre-dry before extrusion at 150Â °C for 4-6 hours. Â A toaster oven works fine for this. Â Do your family a favor and do not dry the resin in your kitchen oven! Â (Wet material will extrude with bubbles present in the filament. Â If this happens, dry the resin more before processing.)
  • Extrusion Temp:Â 340-360Â °C (depending upon how your heater bands, thermocouple, and PID are configured.)
Reviews

Abrasive Material

This material is particularly abrasive among 3D printing filaments. Users may find standard brass nozzles are chewed through very quickly compared to standard wear and tear. When worn through, the nozzle diameter will widen inconsistently and the printer will experience extrusion issues.

Because of this, it's strongly recommended this material be printed through a hardened steel nozzle rather than a softer metal. Hardened steel nozzles can often be inexpensive and easily installed depending on your printer manufacturer's instructions.

Material DETAILS

Glass Fiber Reinforced Filament

What Is It?

DescriptionFibers made of glass reinforced into the polymer during manufacturing and aligned along the axis of filament. This, along with their physical makeup, give this material enormous strength and mechanical properties.

What Does It Do?

Glass fiber reinforcement gives material a lot of desirable properties: High strength High stiffness High chemical resistance Low thermal expansion

How Does It Work?

Reinforcing plastic with glass fibers produces a 3D printing filament which exhibits the best properties of both fiberglass and the plastic of choice.

What Is It Good For?

Ideal for any applications which require strength and rigidity. For these reasons, glass fiber reinforced filament is very popular in automotive, mechanical, civil engineering, and research industries.
