The tapered shape makes it easier to guide these inserts into a hole during installation. Use a drill bit to create a straight hole, then taper the top half.

Install these inserts into plastic parts to create a secure base for fasteners.

A zinc-plated finish gives these steel inserts mild corrosion resistance.

Bumps, scrapes, and falls won’t damage these tough filaments. Known for their durability, they absorb impact without cracking or breaking, and won’t degrade when heated. Use them to print tool handles, storage cases, and other parts that are handled or dropped frequently.

Create tool handles, tote trays, enclosures, and other parts that are banged or dropped often and used near sensitive electronics. These filaments are made of durable ABS or polycarbonate—roughly four times tougher than PLA—with a compound that diverts electrostatic discharges away from equipment.

Stretchy, soft, and sturdy, these filaments make durable parts that resist wear and breakage despite repeated use. Stronger than ABS and PLA filaments, they create long-lasting, wear-resistant parts, such as seals, sleeves, and gaskets, as well as components that take on high-impact forces, such as springs and snap-fit parts.

Made of pliable TPU with a conductive compound, these filaments produce wire, circuits, and other components that direct the flow of electricity in wearable and flexible devices, from watches to grippers.

Create circuit prototypes and other conductive pathways with these low-maintenance PLA filaments.

Print tough, long-lasting parts that won’t scratch or wear out from constant motion and friction, such as gears, bearings, and washers.

Print water-resistant packaging or other parts that will be used near sensitive electronics with these filaments.

Clear your 3D printer’s extruder with these cleaning filaments.

When 3D printing a model with overhangs or hollow spaces, use these filaments to prevent the model from losing its shape. They support the structure during the printing and cooling process, then dissolve or snap away once the part is hardened.

Replace damaged heating elements in your 3D printer, or switch them out to print at a faster speed or higher temperature.

Also known as build sheets, stick these sheets to your printer bed for more accurate 3D printed parts than those made on bare printer beds, masking tape, and glue.

Shield your 3D printer's heating element, or hot end, from sticky filament buildup with these nonstick silicone covers. By repelling plastic and keeping the heating block clean, they increase the heating block's life and prevent stuck filament from dripping off and ruining prints.

These stepper motors are good for precise, repetitive movements, such as those made by the head of a 3D printer.

To precisely position loads in automated systems that are frequently rinsed, these stepper motors are IP65 rated to seal out water.

Also known as semi-aqueous cleaning solutions, these consist of water and other components such as ammonia or citrus. They clean parts with heavy contamination such as buffing and lapping compounds.

These petroleum-based, ammonia-free solutions are the strongest we offer.

These desiccants are best when relative humidity is at least 40%.

Place these dehumidifiers in small spaces to protect moisture-sensitive materials such as photo lenses or 3D printing filaments. While they don’t need a battery or power cord during use, you do plug them in to dry them out—unlike other desiccants, they don’t require an oven.

Keep high torque drive (HTD) timing belt systems running tightly with these idler pulleys. Made with built-in, free-spinning ball bearings, they're installed on shafts or belt tensioners to remove slack from timing belts.

Often used for circuit-breaker housings, manifolds, and semiconductor components, Ultem PEI offers excellent electrical-insulating properties.

Measure the relative humidity and temperature of indoor spaces.

Pour paint, lacquer, and resin through these strainers to remove lumps, flakes, dust, and other contaminants for a smooth finish.

Absorbing impact without cracking or breaking, these plastic pellets are molded into parts that endure bumps, scrapes, and falls.

With a low coefficient of friction, these pellets won't wear away from abrasion that’s often caused by contact with moving parts. Melt and mold them into desired shapes.
