Material Description
LOCTITE® 3D 3955 FST by Henkel is a flame resistant, high-performance 3D printing photopolymer resin compatible with Stratasys Origin One 3D printers. 3955 FST can meet the demands of aerospace, transportation, and other industries that require flame and chemical resistance. 3955 FST is well suited in harsh environments requiring a high tensile and flexural strength, while still maintaining dimensional accuracy and outstanding surface finish.
Consider when replacing phenolic, PBT, aluminum, ULTEM, Antero.
Color options for 3955 FST are Black.
Note: This material requires preheating to 60° C prior to printing. Thermal post-processing is necessary to achieve maximum mechanical and thermal properties.

Case Studies and data sheets
Using the Stratasys Origin® One, the team was awarded first place for an optimized version of the traditional C3175-9J hydraulic line clamp used in F-16 aircraft that meets stringent aerospace flight criteria.
Stratasys has been a great partner in helping us optimize accuracy and repeatability for connectors that require +/- 50 micron accuracy and demonstrating the possibilities of using additive manufacturing to produce part volumes in the tens thousands.
LOCTITE 3D 3955 is a halogen free, high performance, high modulus material with excellent flexural and tensile physical properties. Parts printed with LOCTITE 3D 3955 showcase an outstanding surface finish making it ideal for connector and interior parts for aerospace and rail.
This material processing guide provides information about support tips, printing, part removal, cleaning, postcure, and general material best practices for LOCTITE 3D 3955 material.
