Fil-X SBS Filament 1.75mm Orange – Tough Engineering 1kg

## Fil-X SBS Filament 1.75mm 1kg Orange

Fil-X SBS Filament 1.75mm Orange is a tough engineering-grade material designed for impact-resistant parts with slight flexibility. Unlike rubber-like filaments, SBS provides enhanced durability while maintaining structural strength and stable print performance.

The vibrant orange finish delivers strong visual impact, making it ideal for functional components, protective housings, brackets, and safety-focused builds. Fil-X SBS Filament 1.75mm Orange offers excellent layer adhesion, smooth extrusion, and consistent feeding across most 1.75mm FDM 3D printers.

SBS (Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene) combines the rigidity of polystyrene with the resilience of polybutadiene, resulting in a material that is tougher than PLA and less brittle under stress. It produces minimal odour during printing and does not readily absorb moisture.

This filament can be chemically smoothed using d-limonene to achieve a refined, glossy surface finish.

### Why Choose SBS?
– Tougher and less brittle than PLA
– Slight flexibility without rubber softness
– Strong impact resistance
– Bold orange finish
– Low moisture absorption
– Can be smoothed with d-limonene
– FDA and EU directive approved for food contact
