3.175mm is 1/8"...so it should work with at least some hotends. It sure would be interesting to try it. They also have other materials such as Polyethylene and polypropylene as well. The other materials I see under welding rod look like they are straight lengths of plastics...not sure how that'd work out. Maybe someone should give it a try?

I suppose that could be a real benefit for those who are creating SAE versions of the printers. The build cost for a printer isn't chicken change, but the cost of plastic is an ongoing one that adds up to well over the initial investment in very short order for an aggresive "printee".
