B9Creations, a global provider of additive manufacturing solutions, and Loctite, Henkel brand renowned for advanced engineering materials, announce the full validation of LOCTITE 3D 3843 Black on the B9 Core Series 5 Series and 6 Series platforms, including the B9 Core 6 Series MPro, B9 Core 5 Series XL, and B9 Core 550 printers.
LOCTITE 3D 3843 is a high-performance, semi-flexible resin offering exceptional impact resistance, a matte surface finish, and a moderate Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT) of 63°C – making it ideal for a wide variety of production applications. This material delivers the performance and durability required for:
- Manufacturing aids
- Jigs and fixtures
- Housings and covers
- Insoles
A high-strength alternative to ABS, Delrin, and Polypropylene, LOCTITE 3D 3843 opens new doors for users of B9Creations’ industrial platforms seeking production-grade performance with unmatched detail and repeatability.
“This validation combines the best of both worlds – B9Creations’ industrial-grade printing platforms and Loctite’s proven material innovation – enabling users to confidently transition from prototyping to full-scale production,” said Shon Anderson, CEO at B9Creations.
