Known for their high-quality engineering-grade filaments, Fillamentum delivers a product that is easy to print and a delight for hobbyists. With PEBA-90A filament, Makers can achieve the perfect balance of strength, softness, and durability, making it ideal for a wide range of applications, including medical devices, sports equipment, and fashion accessories. This interesting polymer gives you a highly flexible and resistant material with exceptional mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties for your prints.

What Sets Fillamentum PEBA-90A Filament Apart?

As a new addition to the prestigious Flexfill filament family, this PEBA-based filament brings its own set of distinctive properties and advantages, accommodating everyday applications as well as more advanced and intriguing projects. The presence of polyamide ensures exceptional chemical resistance, particularly against car fluids, non-polar hydrocarbons, ozone, and certain acids. However, it is advisable to conduct a small test with a piece of filament or object before extensive use.

Let's delve into the most remarkable features of PEBA-90A:

• Exceptional Mechanical Strength: Enjoy prints that demonstrate excellent mechanical resilience, ensuring reliability and durability across a wide range of applications.
• Extreme Resistance: Fillamentum PEBA-90A retains its flexibility even in low temperatures, down to an impressive -60 °C, expanding the possibilities for cold-weather applications. Additionally, your prints are tough enough to bounce back even after significant stress or compression. PEBA-90A's resistance to chemicals further enhances its advanced capabilities.
• Reliable Performance: Fillamentum PEBA-90A also withstands cyclic loading without obvious damage, making it ideal for parts subjected to repetitive stress and movement.
• Energy Efficiency and Low Hysteresis: Experience high energy return and minimal energy loss with PEBA-90A, maximizing the performance of your prints.
• Tear-Resistant Prints: Create objects with impressive tear resistance, ensuring they can withstand daily use and rough handling.

By incorporating Fillamentum PEBA-90A filament into your 3D printing endeavors, you can add flexibility and strength to your designs, resulting in captivating wearable prints. Fillamentum is a brand that continually excites with its engineering-grade 3D filaments while maintaining a standard that is easy for hobbyists to print and enjoy. PEBA filaments offer Makers a unique combination of strength, softness, and durability, making them perfect for applications that require both flexibility and toughness, such as medical devices, sports equipment, and fashion accessories.

Starting in as early as 2013, but with roots that go even further than that, Fillamentum is a brand that actually began working in the automotive industry, before moving into the packaging industry, and then eventually arriving in (and specialising in) 3D printing, where they found their true passion. And as a company that has always placed a high priority on following innovation, they took to 3D printing like a fish to water, and since 2013, have been consistently introducing fresh new innovations to the industry in the form of new types of polymers, refinements to classic polymers, as well as hybrid polymers that blend in materials like wood for distinctively unique effects.

What we really love about Fillamentum and their awesome 3D filaments range, is that they offer true consistency even between hundreds or thousands of batches. In fact, they actually match many of their colours to specifically defined Pantones and RAL colours, which are universal colour standards that artists, designers and many other professionals commonly use for precision colour coordination. This of course is complemented by their consistent quality, with an impressive (and tested) 0.05mm tolerance throughout each spool, as well as consistent results from various colours across multiple batches during our own testing phases.

As a brand that clearly demonstrates its passion for 3D printing through it’s beautiful 3D filaments, we’ve been exceptionally impressed with Fillamentum, and we certainly won’t be too surprised if Fillamentum becomes your new favourite 3D filament for all occasions.
