FDM Nylon 12 combines the benefits of Nylon 12 with the design freedom and reliability of FDM 3D printing. This lets you prototype faster and for less cost than injection molding using one of industry’s most widely used engineering thermoplastics.
Possesses good mechanical properties including high tensile strength, toughness, flexibility, and fatigue resistance.
Has excellent chemical resistance, tolerant of oils, fuels, and solvents.
Low moisture absorption compared to other nylon-based variants.
Dimensionally stable, producing accurate print results.
Prototyping and design validation with the same material as the final production part before finalizing injection molds.
Prototypes and production parts of connectors and parts that incorporate snap-fit closures and press-fit inserts.
Specialized tooling that can benefit from FDM Nylon 12’s strength coupled with its wear resistance and toughness.
