Description
Triton3D ABS-GF is 100% compatible with Stratasys® Fortus® printer using the ABS-M30 EEPROM Chip (provided with your order). TriMax™ GF-ABS is a high-performance glass fiber reinforced ABS filament ideal for anyone that desires a structural component with high modulus, excellent surface quality, dimensional stability, and ease of printing. Made using Sabic® MG-94 premium ABS and 10% glass fiber reinforcement. We performed hundreds of hours of testing on this grade in Fortus® printers - both on our in-house printers and with outside beta testers. Due to the abrasive nature of glass fiber, you should anticipate a 50% reduction in tip-life due to higher wear rates vs. unfilled ABS.

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.
