3D Print Models with High Thermal Resistance

High Temperature material combines heat resistance with exceptional dimensional stability, simulating the thermal performance of engineering plastics.

Overview

For applications such as hot-air flow or hot-water flow in pipes and faucets, use Polyjet’s High Temperature photopolymers (Helios) to print heat-resistant parts that reflect the thermal performance of standard plastics. High Temperature material boasts a heat deflection temperature of 63-67 °C upon removal from the printer-  thermal post-treatment can increase this to 75-80 °C. When combined with TangoPlus (rubber-like) materials, you can produce models with unique material combinations, opacities, hues, and hardness.
