What does Flame Retardant mean.
It means the plastic does not want to catch fire, it has low ignitability. The plastic is resistivity to flame, it perfect for environments where there is risk of explosion or other flame hazard. Many products in the food industry for example need a UL rating.

Softening Temperature
Please be aware that Flame resistant ABS has lower softening temperatures (around 80 deg c)

Perfect Winding
All our PLA and ABS (1 kg spools) are now Perfectly wound (yes those are photos not CAD illustrations). This means a not only do we guarantee it is going to unwind perfectly, but also you will discover that it does not spring back onto the spool in the same way traditional spools do. The spool does not want to unwind, so you do not get filament cross threading and tangling.

The UL Certification is available under related material

Regarding 3D Printed Petrol Tanks Under Australia law anything holding fuel must be flame resistant to AS1692, or AS1940-2004 standards

While our ABS flame retardant material meets this standard, ABS can not be used to hold fuel.

So in short - the only material that meets regulations with regards to flame retardant capability is an ABS that will not store petrol

As a result we do not recommend 3D Printed parts to store fuel
