SLA – High Temp Resin
Key Material Facts:
- High Temp Resin offers a heat deflection temperature (HDT) of 238 °C @ 0.45 MPa, the highest among SLA resins.
- Use it to print detailed, precise prototypes with high temperature resistance.
- High Detail for demanding applications, capture the finest of features
- Parts can be printed solid and air / fluid tight right off the printer, no sealing required
- Compatible with assembly features including:
- Glue Joints / light welding
- Printed In Threads (However Helicoils are recommended)
Common Applications:
- Heat resistant mounts, housings and fixtures
- Hot air, gas and fluid flow visualizations
- Low quantity production of small parts
- Molds and inserts
- Semi transparent parts
- Medium temperature vulcanized rubber molding
