ULTEM™ 9085 resin

ULTEM™ 9085 resin

ULTEM™ 9085 filament is a high-performance thermoplastic with excellent physical and mechanical properties for high-demand and speciality applications using FDM technology. It is among the strongest of Stratasys FDM materials and its high-strength-to-weight ratio makes it well suited for high-strength/low-weight applications. Additionally, ULTEM™ 9085 filament possesses high impact resistance and very good chemical tolerance, and meets multiple transportation industry standards for flame, smoke, and toxicity requirements. ULTEM™ 9085 filament certified grade has the same characteristics but also comes with traceability documentation and meets more extensive and stringent test criteria. A Certificate of Analysis enables users to track the filament back to the raw pellet stock. A Certificate of Conformance identifies compliance with approved Stratasys and industry standards. This makes ULTEM™ 9085 filament certified grade highly suitable for industries that require a higher level of material traceability. Besides the standard colours of Natural and Black, additional colours of ULTEM™ 9085 filament are available from the Stratasys Validated Material portfolio. Some of these colours match specialized industry and original equipment manufacturer design specifications. See the ULTEM™ 9085 resin material data sheet for specific material properties. These additional colours are listed below: • Red • Aircraft Gray • Gunship Gray • Dream Gray • White 7362 • Jana White
