FibreX™ PP+GF30 [Polypropylene] 3D Printing Filament

FibreX™ PP+GF30 is made using a specialty formulated 30% glass fiber reinforced polypropylene copolymer which we created specifically for 3D printing. Our formulation offers improved thermal properties and lower shrinkage & warp compared to competitive PP-based compounds.

Reinforcing this trusted engineering polymer with glass fiber really made it a game changer for industrial applications. 3D printed PP+GF30 parts can be found in a wide array of real-world functional end uses or prototypes with automotive, tooling fixtures and jigs, appliances, and sporting goods. >

Benefits of PP+GF Include:

  • Excellent resistance against a huge variety of chemicals
  • Low density and weight
  • Low shrinkage and warping
  • Typically does not absorb moisture, no drying required!
  • High strength, stiffness, and impact resistance

Chemical Resistance of PP+GF

Since properties can change depending on print environment and 3D model geometry and/or surface area, it is always required to do your own testing, but Polypropylene is famous for its chemical resistances to a huge range of environments including:

  • Acids: Acetic, Boric, Hydrochloric, Phosphoric, Stearic, Sulfuric, Uric
  • Bases: Hydrocides of Ammonium, Barium, Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium, Sodium
  • Solvents: Acetone, Ethanol, MEK, Phenol (10%), Water

Filament Specifications:

Diameter: 1.75mm  +/- 0.05mm  
Weight:  500g

Recommended Print Settings:

  • Extruder: 240-270°C
  • Bed Temp: 80-110°C
