MakerBot Tough Precision 1.75mm Filament Onyx Black for METHOD 750g
Create durable, high-impact strength prototypes and fixtures with the MakerBot Tough Precision Filament in Onyx Black. Engineered specifically for the MakerBot METHOD and METHOD X 3D printers, this thermoplastic material delivers up to 2X the impact strength of ABS while maintaining similar tensile and flexural strength properties. Perfect for functional prototypes, manufacturing aids, jigs, fixtures, and snap-fit assemblies, Tough Precision combines the durability of ABS with the ease and office-friendliness of PLA printing.
Why You'll Love MakerBot Tough Precision Filament
-
Exceptional Impact Strength: Up to 2X the impact resistance of ABS for highly durable parts that can withstand demanding applications
-
Dimensionally Accurate: Engineered for precise, reliable prints with consistent quality and minimal warping or curling
-
Smart Spool Technology: Built-in RFID chip communicates material type, color, and remaining quantity directly to MakerBot Print software
-
Moisture Protection: Integrated desiccant maintains low moisture content in the drawer bay for optimal print quality
-
Office-Friendly Printing: No heated build plate required, with significantly less warping than ABS
-
Highly Machinable: Responds well to sanding, thread-tapping, drilling, and other post-processing techniques
Engineered for Professional Applications
MakerBot Tough Precision Material is a thermoplastic filament designed for creating strong, dimensionally stable 3D-printed prototypes and fixtures. It offers the tensile strength and flexibility of ABS but with superior ease of printing and reduced warping. Under a tensile load, Tough filament deforms elastically and returns to its original shape before hitting peak strength, then exhibits a very long plastic deformation range before breaking, far outperforming both ABS and PLA. This makes it ideal for snap fits, threaded components, high-tension springs, clips, and impact-resistant assemblies that require repeated use.
Smart Spool Technology for Seamless Printing
The Smart Spool system provides real-time information about your filament via an RFID chip, displaying material type, color, and the amount remaining directly in MakerBot Print. Each spool is shipped in a vacuum-sealed Mylar bag to maintain quality until opened, and contains a built-in desiccant to ensure low moisture content during storage and use.
