aeCoating™ NexABS-GF25 – Glass Fiber Reinforced ABS Filament for Industrial 3D Printing
aeCoating™ NexABS-GF25 is a high-performance ABS filament engineered for demanding industrial and engineering applications. Manufactured using an advanced co-extrusion skin-core structure and reinforced with 25% chopped glass fibre, this filament delivers exceptional strength, dimensional stability, and heat resistance while remaining reliable and easy to print.
Designed for professionals who require consistent mechanical performance, NexABS-GF25 combines a pure ABS outer layer for excellent layer adhesion with a glass fibre-reinforced core for superior stiffness and load-bearing capability.
Key Benefits
Co-Extrusion Skin-Core Technology
A pure ABS outer skin improves layer bonding and surface quality, while the reinforced core significantly enhances strength and rigidity.
High Mechanical Strength
Delivers approximately 48.5 MPa tensile strength in the X-Y axis and 30.5 MPa in the Z-axis, providing reliable multi-directional performance for structural parts.
Enhanced Heat Resistance
With a glass transition temperature of 93°C, this filament performs better than standard ABS in elevated temperature environments.
Reduced Warping and Matte Finish
Optimised formulation minimises warping and shrinkage while producing a clean, professional matte surface finish.
Lower Nozzle Wear
The co-extruded outer layer reduces direct contact between glass fibres and the nozzle, helping extend the lifespan of printing hardware compared to conventional glass-filled filaments.
