Z3D® HIPS-Sample Filament – lightweight, precise & ideal as support material
Z3D HIPS-Sample Filament is a high-quality 3D printing filament known for its
low weight, dimensional accuracy, and excellent solubility in D-Limonene.
It is perfect as support material for complex models (e.g., ABS, ASA), but can also be used as a standalone material for lightweight, impact-resistant parts.
Produced in premium quality, neatly wound and vacuum-sealed with a drying element – ensuring clean print results and optimal storage.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is HIPS heat-resistant? HIPS withstands temperatures of approx. 80–90 °C, making it suitable for many functional applications.
Do I need an enclosed build chamber? Yes, an enclosed chamber reduces warping and improves print quality.
Can HIPS be smoothed? es, HIPS is soluble in D-Limonene – ideal for smoothing or for dissolving support material.
