HIPS 3D-printfilament Flashforge 1,75 mm naturel 0,5 kg

Flashforge HIPS 3D printing filament in Nature color is a 1.75 mm filament on a 0.5 kg spool designed for FDM/FFF printers that accept 1.75 mm filament. HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) combines impact resistance with ease of post-processing, making it suitable as a support material for ABS prints or as a material for standalone prototypes and functional parts. The filament delivers consistent extrusion and predictable layer adhesion when printed with appropriate settings.

Advantages

HIPS provides mechanical toughness and good dimensional stability, with straightforward sanding and finishing characteristics. As a dissolvable or compatible support material for ABS when using limonene, it enables the production of complex geometries with clean surfaces. The 1.75 mm diameter ensures compatibility with a wide range of desktop printers and the 0.5 kg spool offers a compact option for prototyping and small-batch production.

Suitable for

• Support structures for ABS models (soluble in limonene)
• Functional prototypes requiring impact resistance
• Scale models and architectural mock-ups with post-processing
• Parts that need easy sanding, painting or gluing

Key specifications

• Material: High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS)
• Filament diameter: 1.75 mm
• Spool weight: 0.5 kg
• Color: Nature (natural/neutral shade)
• Recommended printing technology: FDM / FFF
• Typical properties: impact-resistant, easy to sand and finish

How to use

Load the Flashforge HIPS filament into any compatible 1.75 mm FDM/FFF printer following the printer manufacturer's filament-loading procedure. Set print temperatures and bed settings according to the filament manufacturer's or printer's recommendations for HIPS; typical extrusion temperatures are similar to ABS but verify with test prints. When used as a support material for ABS, consider dual-extrusion setups or separate support prints and employ limonene for dissolution if full removal of supports is required. Allow printed parts to cool adequately before removing from the build plate to prevent deformation.

Recommendations

Store the filament in a dry environment away from direct sunlight and moisture. Use dry boxes or desiccants if prolonged storage is expected. Perform small calibration prints to fine-tune temperature, speed and retraction settings for optimal surface finish and dimensional accuracy.
