FibreX™ Nylon+GF30 glass fiber reinforced Nylon 6 Copolymer (PA6) is nothing less than an industrial-grade beast! Formulated to be exceptionally stiff and strong, all without being brittle. Polyamides (PA) are the work horse of the plastics industry the world over thanks to their excellent mechanical, chemical, and thermal resistance. The addition of heavy glass fiber reinforcement takes it to the next level.
Benefits of Nylon+GF30 Include:
Printable on practically any 3D printer with a heated bed
Ideal for structural engineering-grade applications
Exceptionally stiff and strong, without being brittle
Excellent chemical resistance makes it suitable for automotive and industrial applications
Resists fuels, lubricants, heat, and mechanical loading
High thermal properties keep it strong up to 170°C in use, depending on printing and mechanical loads applied
1.75mm and 2.85mm in diameter. 3DXTECH currently offers 750g and 2kg spools in Black, Dark Grey, Flat Dark Earth, Metallic Silver, Tactical Tan, and White.
This material is particularly abrasive among 3D printing filaments. Standard brass nozzles can be chewed through very quickly compared to standard wear and tear. When worn through, the nozzle diameter widens inconsistently and the printer will experience extrusion issues. Use hardened steel nozzles with this filament to maximize toolhead life and quality of your prints!
You'll want a hardened nozzle for this — glass and carbon fibers eat brass nozzles. The copper-core CHT-style nozzle below also keeps flow up on high-temp materials. Nylon drinks moisture out of the air — print it from a drybox or dry it first, or you'll print bubbles and stringing no matter how good your tuning is.
