Hi,
We have a component with a special shape to design for our dust collection piping system and we thought of using a 3D printed part build with a ESD plastic filament and the following characteristic : surface resistance between 10^7 - 10^9.

The component will be installed between 2 stainless steel component bonded by an external wire. What can be the limitation of that kind of component?

Thanks,
