HIPS Filament
HIPS has two roles: as a support material for ABS, and as a light, impact-resistant model material in its own right. As a support, it dissolves in limonene, unlike PVA, which dissolves in water. We stock 2 HIPS products in black and white from 185 SEK per kilo.

When should you use HIPS?
As a model material, HIPS is similar to ABS but lighter and slightly softer. It can be sanded and glued, which makes it useful for prototypes and model making.

Frequently asked questions about HIPS
Yes. HIPS works as a model material and gives light, impact-resistant parts that can be sanded and glued. It does warp like ABS, though, and wants a hot bed.
HIPS dissolves in limonene, not in water. Leave the part in limonene until the supports have gone. Work in a ventilated space.
