Fibretuff Bone Like Filament 2.85mm 500gms

Fibretuff® Biomedical Polymer

3D print anatomical bone models that offer realistic alternatives to expensive and difficult to obtain natural bone. FibreTuff® has excellent bone-like qualities, making it ideal for printing medical, dental, and veterinary bone models.  Use for pre-surgical assessment, simulation, and training.

Please note - this product is not intended for implantation.

Fibretuff® is an outstanding alternative to cadaver bone and allows you to create your own 3D printed anatomical bone models including femurs, calcaneus, talus, metatarsal, skull cap, mandible, sacrum, and many more.  


Fibretuff® Attributes:

Non-toxic, NAMSA Class 1, USP Class VI for Class II devices
Create patient-specific bone models 
Excellent screw retention
Realistic drilling, cutting, and sawing
Create variable bone density simulations
Radio opaque - visible to X-Ray and MRI imaging
