FR ABS is an advanced ABS printing material with flame retardant additives , designed for technical, industrial and electronic applications where fire resistance, mechanical strength and thermal stability are required.
The material retains most of the well-known benefits of regular ABS – strength, heat resistance, and processability – while reducing flammability and slowing the spread of fire in the event of exposure to flame.
✅ Key benefits
🔥 Flame Retardant – suitable for safety-sensitive applications
💪 High mechanical strength – resistant to loads, shocks and abrasion
🌡️ Heat resistance – significantly superior to PLA
🧩 Dimensional stability – suitable for precision parts
⚙️ Convenient post-print processing – sanding, drilling, screwing and gluing
🏭 Professional look – ideal for prototypes and final products
🧪 Common uses
Electronics Cases and Enclosures
Electrical and communication boxes
Industrial parts, automation and control
Functional prototype
Technical facilities and supports
Internal components in the equipment
🖨️ Recommended print settings
Filament diameter: 1.75 mm
Nozzle temperature: 240–260°C
Bed temperature: 100–110°C
Closed cell: Highly recommended
Printing surface: PEI/Glass with adhesive
Cooling: Minimal or Off
⚠️ Important to know
Like all ABS – Warp is possible without a closed cell
Less flexible than PLA, but stronger and more durable
Intended primarily for technical, non-decorative applications
