Manufactured in
the USA from 100% virgin High Impact Polystyrene resin. We use
state-of-the-art resins & manufacturing technologies to give you the best
possible printing experience. HIPS can be used for parts that require
low-gloss and nearly invisible layer lines. It does not absorb moisture, so
you do not need to keep it in a dry box.
Plus, it requires very little setup to achieve truly great prints in
practically any 3D printer. It can also be used as an excellent break-away
support for ABS and ASA or completely dissolved in d-limonene.
Precision extruded using our own formulation, this grade is a bit different
than the usual HIPS used to make our model material colors. It€™s formulated
to be more sensitive to attack from d-limonene solvent and make a better
dissolving support solution.
