Review on ๐Ÿ–จ๏ธ SainSmart Enhanced Dimensional Additive Manufacturing Products with Superior Filament Toughness by Tim Blandin

Revainrating 1 out of 5

False advertising of heat resistance?

False advertising? Before that, this filament likes to stick to itself and needs 220c to print properly and the print speed needs to be under 25mm/sec. Well, to claim heat resistance as 68c is just wrong. The material softens at around 60ยฐC. Listing 68c is misleading as it does not represent the heat deflection temperature. I think it's a play on words. Most will not know that they are not the same and that only difference counts here. Yes, annealing helps raise the temperature to 80 degrees, but the shrinkage is also significant.

Pros
  • 3D printing consumables
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
