Compare every filament we run.

Pick based on where the part will live — heat, load, outdoor, flex. Materials marked "in stock" can be ordered straight from the configurator; "on request" materials are quoted by email.

Reference basis: cross-manufacturer material-class guidance; not a spool-specific datasheet.

Material-class reference ranges compiled from multiple polymer and filament technical sources. Values vary by formulation, colour, conditioning, test method and print settings; they are not a product certificate or a guarantee for your part.

The 1–10 figures are a relative comparison within this catalogue, not a measurement.

“From” prices are the real charge for one reference part (20 mm cube, 15 % infill), computed by the same engine as your quote and including the €7.00 order fee, before shipping. Your part's price depends on its size, height and quantity — the live quote in the configurator is binding.

Dimensional tolerance

±0.2 mm or ±0.2 % — whichever is greater

We hold this tolerance on every part, whichever slicer settings we use. Layer height, infill and nozzle are production decisions we make for you. Per-material figures on the detail pages are tighter than this site-wide commitment.

Still unsure? Tell us what the part has to survive — heat, load, sunlight, moisture — and we'll pick the filament with you before you pay.
