Additive Technology: FFF
Fiberglass Reinforcement
Increase part strength and stiffness at an affordable price.
11x More Rigid Than ABS
Reinforce your parts with Fiberglass to achieve greater strength and stiffness than both ABS and Nylon.
Use Fiberglass reinforcement to print parts that are an order of magnitude stiffer than what ABS or Nylon can provide. Add Fiberglass to your Nylon and Onyx parts to increase stiffness and overall strength. Fiberglass is our most affordable fiber reinforcement and works great for many applications.

High Flexural Stiffness
Fiberglass makes parts 11x more rigid than ABS and 26x more than Nylon.
Add Fiberglass Reinforcement
Print parts with an exterior base material and add Fiberglass reinforcement.
Advantages Of Fiberglass
Moderate Strength
Fiberglass provides strength for parts that need just a bit more. It’s 3.5x strong than ABS and can double the strength of Onyx parts.
Impact Resistant
Onyx parts printed with Fiberglass are 8x stiffer. Add Fiberglass to your parts to achieve greater bend forces than most thermoplastics will allow.
Affordable Price
Fiberglass is our cheapest fiber. Reinforce your parts with Fiberglass to increase overall strength and impact resistance at an affordable price.
