Material Description
LOCTITE® 3D 3843 by Henkel is a tough and versatile 3D printing material compatible with Stratasys Origin One 3D printers. 3843 displays a higher ductility than most engineering grade photopolymers while still maintain a high yield strength and hardness. The high green strength of 3843 enables accurate printing of complex geometries at room temperature. The outstanding surface finish and versatile mechanical properties make this resin ideal for high quantities of functional production parts.
Consider when replacing ABS, Delrin, polypropylene.
Color options for 3843 are matte Black, White, and Clear.
