Complex geometries, high demands on temperature resistance, special protection against fire hazards and smoke development - materials used in the aerospace sector are subject to strict guidelines and must master numerous challenges.

The use of high-performance plastics with their extensive advantageous properties and wide range of applications is therefore popular in the aerospace sector. The industry is also an early adopter of 3D printing technology, which enables cost-efficient and resource-saving production of components from high-performance plastics. With our filaments developed specifically for the aerospace sector, we offer 3D printing materials for the production of components that are flame-retardant and tested and certified according to FAR 25.853 and UL94 V-0.

Depending on the application, various high-performance plastic filaments from Ensinger are suitable for use in the aerospace sector. In addition to inherently flame retardant plastics such as PEEK or PEI, we also offer TECAFIL PC FR, a cost-efficient flame retardant filament that was explicitly developed for use in aircraft interiors.

Our filaments for the Aerospace-Industry offer:

• Flame retardant properties
• Certification according to FAR 25.853
• Certification according to UL94 V-0
• No warping problems
• Optimised layer adhesion
• High mechanical strength
• Advantageous chemical and mechanical properties

Our filaments can be used for a wide range of 3D printed aerospace parts. We will be happy to advise you on the possibilities of additive manufacturing in aerospace and accompany your project from the idea to production.
