Antero 800NA
A PEKK-based material
Antero™ 800NA is a PEKK-based FDM® thermoplastic. It combines FDM’s design freedom and ease of use with the excellent strength, toughness and wear-resistant properties of PEKK material.
Antero 800NA exhibits high heat resistance, chemical resistance, low outgassing and dimensional stability, particularly in large parts. Antero 800NA is available with our Stratasys Fused Deposition Modeling production 3D Printers and is compatible with SUP8000B breakaway support material making it very versatile for complex models.
Using Antero 800NA with FDM technology avoids the waste and design limitations associated with subtractive manufacturing of high-cost bulk PEKK material.
