Winner of the 2020 USAF RSO Advanced Olympics Approval Sprint Challenge. For application-specific flame smoke and toxicity requirements (UL-94).
High-performance, high-modulus product with excellent flexural and tensile physical properties and outstanding flame retardance. Suitable for aerospace and transportation components that require flame resistance, high HDT or chemical resistance. Ideal applications include HVAC components, clips and plugs for control systems, connectors, clamps, ducts, brackets.
Key Benefits
Extremely high HDT (285°C) delivers negligible deformation in harsh environments
Printable at 65°C (149°F)
High modulus
Passes flammability 2×10 second vertical burn and FST (AITM2-0002, AITM2-0007, AITM3-0005)
Additive solutions for U.S. Air Force sustainment challenges
Origin One partnered with two companies to design and 3D print an innovative new C3175 hydraulic clamp for the Air Force's F-16 aircraft. Using Henkel LOCTITE 3955 for the clamp and LOCTITE IND402 for its flexible tether, the team printed 54 clamp halves in 24 minutes. 1,296 clamp halves can be printed using one printer in a single day. Post-processing a printed batch can be completed in roughly 20 minutes. The final, optimized clamp design for the C3175-9J employed on F-16 aircraft doubled the strength of the original part while weighing less.
