Compare 3D Printing Materials

ABS-like material is a durable and versatile prototyping material suitable for producing both functional and aesthetic parts. Its front surface is smooth, while the side walls and bottom have a matte finish, giving parts an appearance similar to injection-molded components. The material offers good dimensional stability, moisture resistance, and is easy to post-process, making it ideal for rapid prototyping and functional testing.It is usually available in black and white.

17-4 PH stainless steel is a precipitation-hardening stainless steel known for its excellent hardness and corrosion resistance. Through vacuum solution heat treatment and H900 aging treatment, printed parts can achieve high strength, high hardness, and good wear resistance. 17-4 PH stainless steel is suitable for manufacturing industrial components that require high strength, corrosion resistance, and complex structures, such as aerospace parts, molds, and high-load machinery.
Disadvantages: Low elongation (≤16% after heat treatment); weak magnetism after heat treatment.

Stainless steel 316L offers excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature performance. It combines good mechanical strength and toughness, making it a reliable material for manufacturing acid- and corrosion-resistant components. Thanks to its outstanding corrosion resistance and its suitability as a medical- and food-grade material, it is widely used in aerospace, prototypes, tooling, and medical applications. Finished parts are typically shot-peened for surface treatment. If you require any other post-processing, please inform our customer service clearly.
Disadvantages: Poor heat resistance (maximum 120°C); surface roughness around Ra10, with slight pits and visible layer texture.

3D printed aluminum alloys, represented by AlSi10Mg and other aluminum-silicon-magnesium alloys, combine lightweight characteristics with excellent mechanical properties. They offer an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, good corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity, and demonstrate excellent fatigue and fracture resistance after heat treatment. The material is easy to form, weld, and machine, making it ideal for aerospace, automotive, and tooling applications where lightweight design and structural complexity are critical. Finished parts are typically shot-peened for surface treatment. If you require any other post-processing, please inform our customer service clearly.
Disadvantages: Poor heat resistance (maximum 120°C); surface roughness around Ra10, with slight pits and visible layer texture.
