3D Printing - Filaments, Reels and 3D Printing Tools

Interstate Plastics provides ABS, PLA and Verbatim's primalloy filaments for 3D printing applications , as well as accompanying tools and 3D printing machines.

The creation of a 3D printed parts is achieved by laying down multiple layers of material until the entire object is created. Each of these layers can be seen as a horizontal cross-section of the eventual part.

Generally, designs are made using a 3D modeling program (for the creation of a totally new object) or with the use of a 3D scanner (to copy an existing object). These designs are created using a 3D printer.

For a printed object to be strong and accurately formed, it is crucial that the printer know exactly how much plastic it is pulling through the machine at any given time. The precision of the filament diameter and the roundness of the filament are vital measurements in ensuring reliable printing.

Verbatim's filaments provided by Interstate Plastics are manufactured from the highest quality materials and produced to extremely tight tolerances to ensure consistent feed and stable printing. Verbatim products provided by Interstate Plastics ensure the highest levels of quality control.

• Manufactured to very tight tolerances
using the highest quality materials to
ensure consistent feeding and stable prints.

• Spools are designed for strength,
balance and uniform feeding - ensuring top
quality prints every time.

• Filaments are packaged in a vacuum sealed
bag, with desiccant to prevent introduction
of dust and moisture.

• Durable, impact resistant filament.

• Compatible with most commercially available non-cartridge based 3D printers.

Available in 1.75mm diameter, ABS 3D printing filament is a durable, impact-resistant filament for use with most commercially available 3D printers.

Glossy in appearance, ABS 3D printing filament can be cut, filed or glued post printing, and for an even smoother surface, acetone may be applied.

With diameter tolerances of +/-0.05mm, Verbatim ABS 3D filaments provided by Interstate Plastics ensure consistent feeding and stable prints, every time.

Available in colors:

• Black (1.75mm and 3mm)
• White (1.75mm and 3mm)
• Silver (1.75mm)
• Transparent (1.75mm)
• Blue (1.75mm)
• Red (1.75mm)
• Green (1.75mm)

Available in both 1.75mm and 3mm diameters, PLA 3D printing filaments provided by Interstate Plastics do not require a heated print bed and is less prone to warping than other filament materials.

Designed for compatibility with most commercially available printers, PLA filament can be cut, filed or glued post printing. PLA filament should not be used with acetone.

With diameter tolerances of +/-0.05mm, Verbatim PLA 3D filaments provided by Interstate Plastics ensure consistent feeding and stable prints, every time.

Available in colors:

• Black (1.75mm and 3mm)
• White (1.75mm and 3mm)
• Silver (1.75mm and 3mm)
• Natural Transparent (1.75mm and 3mm)
• Blue (1.75mm and 3mm)
• Red (1.75mm and 3mm)
• Green (1.75mm and 3mm)
• Yellow (1.75mm and 3mm) 
• Orange (1.75mm)

Developed using Mitsubishi Chemical proprietary materials, Verbatim's PRIMALLOY™ flexible 3D filament, provided by Interstate Plastics, is a high performance, polyester based thermoplastic elastomer which consists of a mixture of crystalline aromatic polyester block (mainly PBT) and an uncrystalline polyether block (mainly poly-tetramethylene-ether-glycol).

This mixture gives objects printed with PRIMALLOY™ unique flexibility without sacrificing durability. Objects printed with PRIMALLOY™ filament feature good mechanical strength, oil resistance, chemical resistance and flex-fatigue resistance. PRIMALLOY™ also offers excellent heat resistance as well as hardness stability within a wide temperature range.

PRIMALLOY™ is available in white in 1.75mm and 3mm.
