Nylon 3d Printing Filament for Functional Parts

A Material for Demanding Prints 

Nylon 3D printing filament is used for functional parts where strength, flexibility and resistance to wear are important considerations. It can be suitable for mechanical components, prototypes, tools and parts exposed to repeated use. 

3D META supplies nylon 3D printing filament, including PA Nylon and Carbon Fibre PA Nylon options. The range provides material choices for different functional printing requirements.  

Why Use Nylon Filament? 

PA Nylon has mechanical properties that make it suitable for parts requiring strength and flexibility. It can also provide resistance to abrasion, chemicals and repeated wear.  

These properties make nylon useful for applications such as gears, hinges, bearings, tool handles, mechanical components and functional prototypes. 

Storage Matters 

Nylon is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the surrounding air. Moisture can affect print quality, so the filament should be stored in a sealed container with desiccant when it is not being used. 

Following suitable drying and printing instructions can also help achieve more consistent results.
