Advantages Of Fiberglass
Moderate Strength
Fiberglass provides strength for parts that need just a bit more. It’s 3.5x strong than ABS and can double the strength of Onyx parts.
Impact Resistant
Onyx parts printed with Fiberglass are 8x stiffer. Add Fiberglass to your parts to achieve greater bend forces than most thermoplastics will allow.
Affordable Price
Fiberglass is our cheapest fiber. Reinforce your parts with Fiberglass to increase overall strength and impact resistance at an affordable price.
