PA12 Nylon Filament
The material retains its shape and strength even when exposed to heat.
The print bends under pressure without cracking or permanent deformation.
The print surface does not wear off even with intensive and frequent use.
Filament available in the new spool system. Compatible with BambuLab AMS.
PA12 nylon retains its properties over a wide temperature range—both above and below 0°C. The material is characterized by high impact strength and elasticity—it stretches by up to 50% before breaking. As a result, printed parts are resistant to cracking and maintain a long service life under demanding conditions.
The filament exhibits excellent resistance to hydraulic fluids, oils, fuels, lubricants, saltwater, and solvents, making it indispensable in the automotive, industrial, and technical sectors. Just keep in mind that nylon is not resistant to concentrated acids and bases.
Fiberlogy Nylon PA12 is easy to post-process—it can be painted and machined with tools used for metal. This makes the prints not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing and tailored to the user’s specific needs.
Due to its high mechanical strength, Nylon PA12 is ideal for producing functional prototypes, machine parts, and components exposed to friction or contact with chemicals. It is a must-have material in any engineering workshop that uses 3D printing.
To avoid issues related to material shrinkage, it is recommended to use a 3D printer with an enclosed and heated chamber when printing with Nylon PA12. This ensures dimensional stability and high-quality prints.
For even more demanding projects, Fiberlogy offers reinforced versions: PA12+CF15 (with carbon fiber) and PA12+GF15 (with glass fiber), which increase the mechanical strength and stiffness of the finished models.
