In our effort to offer the widest range of 3D printing filaments possible we are proud to announce that now also offer igus® iglide filaments in our webshop!
igus filaments are all about functionality. The iglide® range of filaments are 3D printing materials for maximum service in moving applications. You can create custom parts with significantly higher wear resistance than standard filament. The iglide materials benefits include:
- High degree of wear resistance, similar to that of injection molded iglide® components
- Igus has more than 30 years of experience in the development of high-performance plastics for moving applications
- Tested in Igus’ own laboratory
igus filaments range of 3D print materials for simple processing with very good wear values, and filaments with very good friction properties, high strength and elongation, up to chemically resistant materials and those that are suitable for FFF/FDM 3D printing. Igus uses its innovative polymer materials to develop products that provide creative solutions and exceed customers’ expectations while delivering fast, accurate service.
3D print materials from igus are stable and wear-resistant materials made of iglide high-performance plastics. They guarantee a long service life of the individual wearing parts due to an exceptionally high degree of resistance to abrasion.
Their tribologically optimized filaments are up to 50 times more abrasion-resistant than standard 3D print materials. This results in higher levels of effectiveness. So you can produce prototypes and small series more quickly and cost effectively. Printed components can also quickly replace wear parts and reduce downtime periods. At colorFabb we offer now 3 filaments, in both 1.75mm and 2.85mm:

About Igus
“igus® plastics for longer life”
Günter Blase began igus back on 15th October 1964 in a double garage in Cologne. For the first 20 years, the company worked as a supplier of complex technical polymer components. However, in 1983 Frank Blase established reinforced plastic energy chain systems and injection molded polymer bearings as two distinct product groups and set up a network of sales engineers. These seemingly unrelated products are linked together through the belief in making functionally advanced, yet affordable polymer components and assemblies. Between 1985 and 2016, igus® grew from 40 to more than 2,950 employees distributed between the head office in Germany and 35 subsidiary companies around the world. igus also has representative partners in more than 35 other countries. igus will continue to invest in expansion in the coming years, thanks to the opportunities for growth provided by modern materials.
Mission statement:
igus uses its innovative polymer materials to develop products that provide creative solutions and exceed our customers’ expectations while delivering fast, accurate service.
