Configured materials

Online options are the starting point.

These materials are configured in the quote tool. Available colors and finishes are shown after you pick a material.

  • SLS

    Nylon PA12 Gray

    Durable functional parts: housings, brackets, fixtures, guards and repeat-run components. Raw depowdered or sandblasted finish. Parts can be dyed red, black, green, or blue.

  • FDM

    Nylon CF

    Stiff carbon-fiber-filled nylon for brackets and mounts where FDM geometry and surface fit the requirement.

  • FDM

    TPU 95A

    Flexible guards, damping features, grips and impact-resistant prototypes.

  • FDM

    ABS, PLA+ and PETG

    Cost-conscious prototypes, fixtures and fit-check parts selected around heat, strength and schedule.

CNC / Engineering review

Metals and engineering plastics

Machining material depends on geometry, tolerance, stock, finish and quantity. Sent for engineering review. CNC is not part of the instant quote; the guided quote routes it to review.

Selection review

Start with the requirement, not the material name.

Load, environment, fit, finish, quantity and schedule determine the useful material family and production path.

  1. 01

    Load, stiffness and expected failure mode

  2. 02

    Temperature, chemicals, UV and operating environment

  3. 03

    Fit interfaces, wear surfaces and assembly method

  4. 04

    Finish, appearance, documentation and regulatory needs
