High Temperature Plastics
Across a broad range of industries and applications, ETEC’s high temperature plastics feature best-in-class strength and durability.
So whether you’re looking to print injection molds and wind tunnel models, or mass-produce aerospace connectors, electronic housings, ducts, or underhood components – ETEC has you and your applications covered!
E-Perform
Strong and stiff material with high heat tolerance
E-Perform is a high stiffness and high heat tolerance material ideal for producing 3D printed injection molds. Printed E-Perform molds are capable of resisting wear from highly abrasive materials, such as fiber filled plastics. It is also ideal for end use parts that require steady performance in high pressure and harsh environments, such as parts for wind tunnel testing.

LOCTITE IND406
High-strength and high-elongation plastic with good impact resistance and an HDT of 100°C
LOCTITE IND406 is a tough, rigid, and durable material that performs well in industrial applications requiring high-temperature resistance. The material offers all-around strength, good impact resistance, and high elongation. IND406 is a great alternative for traditional injection molded plastics such as ABS and PP. The stiffness, toughness, and thermal durability of this material make it ideal for the production of end-use parts across all industries.

HTM 140
Molding material designed for high-temperature and high-pressure applications
ETEC’s HTM140 High-Temperature Mold Material is an ideal material for manufacturers; with a heat deflection temperature of 140°C straight out of the machine, high-definition parts printed in HTM140 can be directly vulcanized in rubber, eliminating the need for a metal master. Similarly, it can be used in a variety of applications that require thermal resistance such as items to be metalized, high-temperature oil and gas applications or tools for small-run injection molding.
