Resin (MSLA)
High Temp Resin 3D printing
High Temp is the resin with the highest heat deflection temperature in our catalog, for parts in contact with hot air and fluids. We print it in Brescia with MSLA.
What it is for
High Temp resin is used for parts in contact with hot air and fluids: test ducts and manifolds, nozzles, enclosures close to heat sources, tools and fixtures for thermal processes, inserts for trial molds. It keeps its shape at temperatures at which the other resins deform.
It is stiff and brittle: do not choose it for parts that take impacts or have to flex, where the Tough resins are needed. Under load it holds less than the figure at 0.45 MPa suggests: at 1.8 MPa the data sheet reports 101 °C. For mechanical loads at high temperature move to a filament such as PEEK or Ultem.

Typical values from the makers' data sheets, measured on specimens under the conditions stated. They are not guaranteed design values: for a critical application ask us for a test on your part.
Treatments after printing
The table sets the values after a 60-minute post-cure at 60 °C next to those after 120 minutes at 80 °C followed by 180 minutes at 160 °C: the 238 °C heat deflection temperature needs the 160 °C step.
Design limits
- Build volume
