-Sometimes known as "Ultem 1010", PEI is most commonly found in 3D printing as the de-facto bed material of choice. For those with machines strong enough to meet the printing requirements, PEI is also a viable filament to print. This amorphous polymer needs no post-processing and provides ready-to-go parts right off of the print sheet.+Sometimes known as "ULTEM", PEI is most commonly found in 3D printing as the de-facto bed material of choice.
